CHSAA baseball roundup: Farrell hands Sea first league loss

First Xaverian and then St. Joseph by the Sea.

A few hours after St. Francis Prep handed Xaverian its first league loss, Monsignor Farrell did the same thing to St. Joseph by the Sea.

Rob DeAngelis drove in Peter Kennedy in the bottom of the 10th inning to lead Farrell to 4-3, walk-off win in CHSAA Staten Island ‘AA’ baseball Friday night at the College of Staten Island. Kennedy drew a walk off reliever James Gurrieri, Mike Camerada was intentionally walked and DeAngelis made Sea pay with a line-drive base hit to end the game.

Camerada had two hits, including the game-tying RBI in the eighth, and Mike Viegas had two hits and two runs scored for Farrell (5-7), which was down 3-1 after the top of the eighth with its back up against the wall.

Brian Russell gave up just two earned runs on seven hits with nine strikeouts for Sea (9-1). But Jason Failla was almost as good, giving up three runs on nine hits with six strikeouts in eight innings. Kevin Garzone got the victory in relief, giving up just a hit and a walk in two innings.

Xavier 11, All Hallows 4: Nick DiLeo was 2-for-4 with an RBI and also allowed just one unearned run with seven strikeouts in five innings for Xavier (7-7), which is now a game behind All Hallows (7-6) for second place in Bronx/Manhattan ‘AA.’ Jerry D’Onofrio went 3-for-3 with three RBIs and Cody Mangano was 2-for-4 with two RBIs.

Fordham Prep 6, Mount St. Michael 2: John Tobin allowed two runs on three hits with nine strikeouts and two walks over seven innings of relief for Fordham (11-3). Tobin came in with the bases loaded and no one out in the first. Ryan Mahoney went 2-for-4 with three RBIs and Steve Fondu and Robbie Lynch had back-to-back doubles in the two-run second inning. Andrew Velazquez contributed two stolen bases and two runs scored. Ryan Aponte had a two-run single for Mount (1-11).

Iona Prep 2, Cardinal Spellman 0: Matt D’Ariano pitched four scoreless innings and Vinny Martin threw three more scoreless frames in relief for Iona (9-5). Sam Garito and Vinny DeMaria both had RBIs. Spellman is 7-6.

Bishop Ford 5, Archbishop Molloy 4: David Hernandez gave up just two earned runs on five hits and four walks in 6-1/3 innings and Mark Maguire was 2-for-3 with a double and a run scored for Ford (8-6). Will Garces was 1-for-3, knocking in the winning run in the form of Austin Torres. Eric Tully had two key sacrifice bunts and an RBI single that tied the game in the fifth. Helbert Estevez got the save, coming in with one out in the seventh and the bases loaded and getting two ground outs. Molloy falls to 7-6.

Christ the King 3, Holy Cross 0: Jesse Toscano gave up no runs on five hits with three strikeouts in 6-2/3 innings to lead Christ the King (2-12). Ralph Estrella had an RBI double and Lucas Burton got the last out with a strikeout for the save. James Callahan gave up just one earned run with nine strikeouts in six innings for Cross (7-6).
