There are certain things coaches dream about and there are certain things they worry about. If I were a coach, and I am glad I am not, I would worry about depth in my pitching staff. I would worry if my ace Billy didn't do well, would my backup Johnny be able to come in and get the job done? Coach John Kearney doesn't have those worries. The Trojans are blessed with one of the deepest pitching staffs in the state. Senior (left hander) Mike Bruemmel is pitching at a career "best" right now, Sophomore Jack Connolly has an "unhittable" curve ball, Senior Cody Medeiros is just returning to action and looks like he is in mid season form (upper 80's +++), Junior Josh Monson (2-0) is waiting in the wings, and then there is Sophomore Andrew Noviello... Andrew got the nod from Coach Kearney Wednesday afternoon, seeking revenge, against the teams April 25th loss (BR's first loss of the season), and he thrived!
Andrew struck out 2 in the 1st, 3 in the 2nd, 3 in the 3rd, 2 in the 4th, 3 in the 5th, 2 in the 6th, and 1 in the 7th for a total of 16 K's.... In a 7 inning game?? Thats unheard of!!!! I am glad he is on our team!
The Trojans got on the scoreboard in the top of the 2nd with a Joe Freiday single, who would score on a Cory Wasylow single to make the score 1-0. They would add 4 more runs in the top of the 3rd on hits by Andrew Noviello (double), Mike Bruemmel, Joe Freiday and Dave Miller (singles), Brian McSherry (double), and Connor Sullivan RBI to make the score 5-0. So as the BR fans started the Nah nah NAH NAH song, the Marshfield Rams said "not so fast", as they scored 3 runs in the bottom of the 3rd on 3 hits and a walk, to make it interesting 5-3. The Trojans added a run in the top of the 4th on a Tyler Carey triple and an Andrew Noviello Sac fly to make it 6-3, and that was all she wrote.
The Trojans improve to 15-4 on the season. Andrew Noviello improves to 4-1 with a 1.47 ERA as he gave up 5 hits, 3 walks and only 2 earned runs.
Joe Freiday led the way offensively going 3-4 with an RBI and 2 runs scored, Dave Miller went 2-2 with an RBI, run scored and two walks, Cory Wasylow and Tyler Carey both went 2-4.
The Trojans finish up the regular season against a beefy Hingham squad on Thursday at 4:00 at Hank Pearson field. Probable starter is Jack Connolly.
FYI The MIAA seeding's meeting will be on May 28th, and the First round will start no earlier than May 30th......
