Clifton Park played a very nice game. They came out strong defensively and played well in the field. The pitching staff did a great job holding back runs and getting out of tough jams with bases loaded. Pitchers were Jack Normandin, David Van Beusekom, Mike Miranda, Alex Boodram, Jake Blinstrub and Sam Van Der Veer. Coupled with the pitchers, the catchers all did a fantastic job at limiting No Colonie’s base running, by protecting the ball and keeping it in front of them for all six innings. The catchers defensive efforts were lead by Kevin Lynch, with a heads up call to Alex Boodram (pitcher), for the force out at home. Defensively Clifton Park was rounded out with infielders Sam Van Der Veer, Mike Westfall, David Van Beusekom, and Mike Miranda. Outfielders were Ryan Katinas, Evan Jones, Michael Hicks, Jake Blinstrub, Jack Normandin and Alex Boodram. Offensively Clifton Park did a good job at putting the ball in play. This was driven home by David Van Beusekom and his thundering triple, in the 5th inning, that knocked in three runs – nice shot. David was in good company with Alex Boodram (2 singles), Jack Normandin (single), Jake Blinstrub (single, double), Mike Miranda (single), Kelsey Kohler (single) and Michael Hicks (single). Nice game.
