Game 13: Reading 5 Belmont 1 Reading earned a much-needed victory at home vs. Belmont and its outstanding pitcher, Mike Richardson. The key to the win was the outstanding pitching of senior Garrett Colantino who pitched 6 innings, yielding just one run. Reading scored in the bottom of the 1st when an error, a Derek Galante single, and another error produced a run. Belmont tied the game in the 4th on a single, sacrifice bunt, and ground out. Yet Reading came back with 3 runs in the bottom half of the inning when it strung together six quality at bats. With one out, Scott Tully got an infield single and stole 2nd. Chris Ehl ripped a single off the pitcher's glove and Anthony Spano walked to load the bases. Mike O'Leary singled up the middle for one run and Alex Valente was hit by a pitch to score another. Ryan Wynns then hit a hard ground ball that plated the 3rd run of the inning to give Reading a 4-1 lead. In the meantime, Colantino was in command, aided by strong defense by shortstop Valente. Reading's final run came in the 6th on a bunt single by Anthony Spano, another single by O'Leary, and an RBI bunt by Valente. Colantino yielded singles to the first two Belmont hitters in the 7th, but Scott Tully came on to fan the next three hitters.
