District 2 4A Title Game (Valley West vs Delaware Valley)

Valley West and Delaware Valley came in looking for a District title. Valley West looked for back-to-back titles while Delaware Valley was looking for it's first title since 2006. Valley West sent Tyler Yankosky to the mound while Delaware Valley countered with Trevor Bertsch. Ryan Hogan drew a two out walk for the Spartans in the top of the first. Justin Vought would reach on a error then Tyler Yankosky drove home Hogan and Yankosky to make it 2-0 Valley West going to the bottom of the 1st. Yankosky threw a 1-2-3 1st for the Spartans. Eric Raitter drew a 2 out walk but a strikeout ended the threat. Yankosky threw another 1-2-3 inning in the 2nd. Rich Sott drew a leadoff walk then Ryan Hogan singled, then Justin Vought walked to load the bases. Mike Pollick would then draw a bases loaded walk with two outs to make it 3-0 then Dave McCue made it 4-0 on another bases loaded walk. Matt Cavallaro came in to pitch for the Warriors and induced a grounder to second for the last out of the top of the third. Then there was an hour and a half rain delay but after, Ryan Simpson hit a one out single for Delaware Valley's first hit of the game but a pop out and a strikeout ended the inning. Lawrence Cicileo just missed a home run by a foot in the third. Rich Sott and Ryan Hogan each hit one out singles then Vought drove home Sott and Hogan on a double to right center to make it 6-0 Spartans. Yankosky would then throw another 1-2-3 inning with some help from the defense behind him. Bertsch looked like he would have a hit but Sott dove and make the catch for the first out of the bottom of the 4th and for the final out, Popson dove for the ball and threw to Eric Raitter for the final out of the 4th. Eric Raitter and Justin Montalvo each hit two out singles but a strikeout ended the top half of the 5th inning. Matt Cavallaro hit a one out single but a fielder's choice and a groundout ended the inning. Ryan Hogan drew a leadoff walk then Peyton Baker came in to pitch for the Warriors then Justin Vought singled to move Hogan to second. Tyler Yankosky hit a ball deep to right center to score Sott and Hogan on a triple to make it 8-0 Valley West. Dillon Petzold came in to pitch for the Warriors. Dominick Bayo singled home Yankosky to make it 9-0. Mike Pollick walk to move Bayo to second, after a popout, Eric Raitter drew a walk to load the bases, after a strikeout, Rich Sott drove in Bayo to make it 10-0 and they would go to the bottom of the 6th to potentially take the District title. Tyler Yankosky would then strike out the side in the 6th and the Spartans would take the District title 10-0 in 6 innings.


Thoughts on the game: Tyler Yankosky was magnificent on the mound and at the plate. Delaware Valley had some issues on the mound today, issuing 12 walks altogether. Valley West looked like they were focused on getting back to back titles and now they focus on the possibility of reaching the State title game for the second straight year.
