Game 10
Reading 14 Watertown 3
Reading played a strong all-around game at home as Sean O'Neill pitched 5 strong innings (1 ER, 6 hits, 10 K, 0 BB) and was backed by a 17-hit attack.
Reading scored in the bottom of the first when Alex Valente singled and scored on a Liam Kenneally single. Reading scored two more in the second on a walk to Rob DiLoreto, single by Anthony Spano, a balk, and an error. Three more Reading runs came across in the 3rd; with two outs and none on, O'Neill doubled, Scott Tully doubled, DiLoreto tripled, and Spano singled. Watertown closed the gap to 6-2 in the fourth, but Reading responded in a big way. Valente led off with a walk and Ryan Wynns reached on an error. Kenneally singled to load the bases and Derek Galante roped a grand slam over the left field fence to put Reading ahead 10-2. The Rockets scored three more that inning, on a 2-run double by O'Neill and RBI double by Mike O'Leary. Each team scored one more to account for the 14-3 final score.
