Pearl River 2, Suffern 0

Playing back to back games is hard but playing two games in less than 24 hours is extremely hard so I give a lot of credit to both Pearl River and Suffern getting up for this game that began at 11 a.m.
After the Pirates lost in extra innings to Arlington for their second loss of the year, the Pirates were able to get two off of Catrina Delgais to go ahead 2-0 and then win the game.
Katie Scrima pitched the game for the Pirates which I think was a pretty gutsy move because she pitched all nine innings yesterday against Arlington and she pitched one hell of a game. She allowed five hits and struck out 15. One thing that Scrima did that showed how tough she is was in the bottom of the fourth inning. She made the pitches that she had too and when the Mounties had two runners on; Scrima got a key strike out of Jess Crowley to get the second out of the inning.
Catrina battled her but off in the circle allowing one earned run, two hits, three walks and struck out nine. She was able to cool off a very hot hitting offense in the Pirates.
This was a good win for the league III-C champs especially with Sectionals coming up next week and with Eastchester coming in on Tuesday.
I have no doubt in my mind that both will make the Sectional tournament. For the Mounties, the biggest thing that could hurt them in the tournament is clutch hitting. The pitching will be there; but if they can’t get the key hit then they may have a problem against some of the other powerhouses in AA.
