On Tuesday, the Mets evened the season series with the Orioles courtesy of a 16-3 drubbing. The O’s coughed up 19 walks in 5 innings to the collective SMH of their fans. **Weston Kellogg** had 2 hits and 2 RBIs and **JP Peavy** added a hit and RBI in defeat. For the Mets, **Finn Reilly** had a pair of knocks and 3 RBIs.** Liam Winn** batted in a run with a hit as well. Wednesday, the Pirates **Raymond Cao**, **Nico Rocherolle**, and **Cedra Crews** combined for the no-no-no-hit shutout as they led an 8-0 win over the Giants. The Pirates were aided by stellar error-free play in the field including gems by **Arden Shapiro**, **Austin Miller** and **Zander Ting**.  **Nash Benford** pitched 2 solid innings for the Giants. Red Sox vs Redbirds had the game of the week Thursday as the Sox staged a 4-run rally in the 7th inning to win 6-5. **Oliver Churcher** delivered a clutch single with two strikes to drive in **Scottie Shaw** and **Sammy Marcus** to put his team ahead.  ed Sox pitching was led by starter **Heath Hochanadel** and closer **Miller Weir** who each logged 4 Ks.  **Gio Perez** continued to mash with two hits including a double. The Cards were bolstered by great pitching from **Roberto Santo Domingo**, **Tommy Strong**, and a heroic 83-pitch effort from **Nolan Ward**. Saturday was a gorgeous sunny affair at Alto with pastries and coffee from Le Marais, roving packs of middle schoolers chatting up Snack Shack concession workers and a ton of baseball. The morning started with the Pirates holding on for an 8-5 win against the resilient Sox.  **Theo Adam** pitched 2 2/3 and had a hit on his 14th birthday.  Pirates **Alex Radics** launched his second HR of the season into right center. He scored 3 times and in the field was part of 2 double plays both coming with the bases loaded. The Giants handled a depleted Mets team 14-4 paced by a barrage of hits including a pair each from **Bradley Marshall, Erickson Kenyon** and **Seamus Mauer**.  There is an APB out for **Jacob DiPippa** — “theft” of 3 bases and “obstruction of offense” in 2+ innings on the mound. The Cardinals **Henry Dahlman** appeared to be putting in bids for gold gloves at multiple positions when making putouts all over the diamond and helping secure a 10-6 win over the Orioles. In need of a pool player, the Cards picked up Pirates **Nico Rocherolle** who went 3 for 3 with 4 RBIs including a double that one-hopped the fence and the first Juniors switch hit — a lefty RBI single.  **Tommy Strong** added 2 hits and scored 3 runs. **Philip Walke**r had a hit and RBI as did **Curren Glynn**. For the Orioles, **JP Peavy** launched a double and had a pair of hits and RBIs. **Noah Schick** added 2 more in a losing cause and pitched a clean inning to keep the O’s close. Sunday, the Giants and Cardinals were back out to complete a suspended game from March with the Giants winning 13-4.  Both** Gavin Bailey** and **Henry Dahlman** made their debut efforts from the mound. The two teams followed that with a tense low-scoring battle where the Giants led 3-2 in the 6th before going on to win 6-3. **Bradley Marshall**, **Ethan Cann** and **Nash Benford** shouldered the pitching load combining for 8 Ks. Cards **Tianu Koss** and **Feddy Tellez** pitched well. **Dane Eberhart** pitched his first Juniors inning coming on in relief with the bases loaded and recording 3 straight outs! In District play, the Cardinals played a very solid 3 innings in Tiburon keeping the game close before the floodgates opened as TPLL Tigers went on to a 15-0 win. In Fairfax, the Orioles upended the WMLL Giants 6-3 thanks to **Ty Cerne’s** complete game 11 K gem. Cerne helped his cause with a pair of hits. **Will Weir** was back doing Will Weir things — 2 hits, 4 stolen bases and 3 runs scored.
