NYCBL Finals Game 2 Preview

Brockport Riverbats (1-0) at Glens Falls Golden Eagles (0-1)
East Field Stadium, 7 PM


Game 2 Pitching Probables

Brockport- Logan Hull (Texas Lutheran)
Playoffs: 1-0, 1.29 ERA, 7 IP, 1 R, 6 K, 4 BB, .095 OBA
Regular season: 4-2, 3.15 ERA in seven starts, eight total appearances, 45.2 IP, 36 K, 20 BB, .215 OBA

Glens Falls- Jack Wagoner (Sacred Heart)
Playoffs: 0-0, 1.29 ERA, 7 IP, 1 R, 2 K, 1 BB, .250 OBA
Regular season: 6-0, 3.66 ERA in eight starts, nine total appearances, 46.2 IP, 40 K, 15 BB, .198 OBA


After being two-hit in Game 1 in Brockport, the Golden Eagles look to recover and force a deciding Game 3 on Saturday at 1 PM. Glens Falls will likely start Jack Wagoner (Sacred Heart)--a six game winner in the regular season. The yellow birds should have a few bullpen arms at their disposal as well. Billy Barret (Illinois) has not pitched since July 29. Ricky Anaya (Florida Atlantic) pitched 3 1/3 innings against Amsterdam in Game 3 of the Division Finals but left with an apparent blister on his pitching hand. Marc Damon (Pima CC) pitched four innings in the Game 3 win against Amsterdam so his availability is questionable. Outfielder turned lights-out closer Anthony Giansanti tossed 1 2/3 innings in the Amsterdam game and should be good to go. Will Hassett (Siena) has pitched twice over the past four days and Jamie Storey (Midland) lasted 7 1/3 innings in Game 2 in Amsterdam and is not likely available.
