Wyoming Area at Crestwood Baseball

Wyoming Area and Crestwood played in Mountain Top on Monday afternoon, each putting their five game winning streak on the line. Matt Mickowski got the start for the Comets and the Warriors countered with Corey Lescavage. Mike Bonita lead off the game with an infield single, then advanced to second on an errant pickoff. Bonita advanced to third on a ground ball to second. Josh Kopcza hit a sac fly to left to score Bonita to give the Warriors a 1-0 lead. A flyout to center ended the top of the 1st. Lescavage threw a 1-2-3 first inning. Mickowski threw a 1-2-3 2nd to keep it 1-0 Warriors. Lescavage started off by getting the first 2 outs of the inning, but Kresge and Tokach would each reach on errors, but a ground ball to second ended the threat. Brandon Charney led off the 3rd with a single, then advanced to second on a passed ball and went to third when Aaron Lee sacrificed to the pitcher. Mike Bonita would drive in Charney to make it 2-0 Wyoming Area. Bonita advanced to second on a stolen base then scored when Lescavage singled. Lescavage stole second then Kopcza drew a walk then Cole Keating singled home Lescavage to make it 4-0. Anthony Nardell then singled to load the bases. Tyler Dougherty would bring in Kopcza and Keating on a Fielder's choice to make it 6-0. The inning would end with a ground out to short. The Warriors had batted around. Steve Wegener and Derek Distasio would lead off the bottom of the 3rd by reaching on an error. Courtesy runner Matt Taleroski would reach third on Distasio's error and he would advance to second on that error. Lescavage would retire the next 3 batters to end the 3rd. Matt Trimmer came in to pitch for the Comets and replaces Matt Mickowski. Charney drew a leadoff walk and Aaron Lee singled and Mike Bonita would bring in Charney on a Fielder's choice RBI to make it 7-0. Trimmer would retire the next two to end the top of the 4th. Tim Kindler led off with a single but Lescavage retired the the next 3 to keep the shutout going. Trimmer would throw a 1-2-3 5th. Lescavage countered with a 1-2-3 inning of his own. Steve Homza lead off the inning striking out but reached on a passed ball, but would be eliminated on a 6-3 double play, then a groundout to third ended the top of the 6th. Tim Kindler hit a two-out single but a ground out ended the inning. Josh Kopcza hit a two out single but on the next batter, Curtis Tokach made a long throw from third base to get Keating for thee third out. Tokach led off the bottom of the 7th with a single then advanced to second when the ball in the outfield was misplayed. Jimmy Albee then followed with a walk. Pinch hitter Anthony Kovalchik flew to right then Distasio was out on an infield fly. Brandon Brozena would single to load the bases, then James Graves singled home Tokach and Albee to cut the Warriors lead to 7-2. Colin Macko then followed with a single to score Brozena and made it 7-3. Matt Wright relieved Corey Lescavage and he would strike out Tim Kindler to end the inning and the Warriors snapped Crestwood's 5 game streak and they stay unbeaten 7-3.


Thoughts on the game: The third inning made the difference for Wyoming Area, scoring 5 runs in the inning and cruising from there. Cory Lescavage pitched a great game, keeping the Comets off the board for six innings. The Comets had their chances to score in the second and third but couldn't capitalize on them.
