Senior Jordan Rittiner (20) took the mound for the
Jays in this opening round of the baseball playoffs.
Jordan pitched nine complete innings to earn the win.

 

 

Keeping the Lions in the cage... Senior pitcher Jordan Rittiner keeps the Lion base runner honest,
making a quick throw to junior first baseman Briggs Barrios (9).

 

 

Gotcha Ya!!! Here, junior first baseman Briggs Barrios (9) tags this Lion for an out.

 

 

Look what I caught... Senior outfielder Joe Palmer (26) makes a great catch in left field.

 

 

I'll take seconds... Junior Gary Langlois (34) steals second to get in scoring position for the Jays.

 

 

Junior catcher Derek Dunham (14) checks the dugout for the next called pitch.

 

 

On Your Toes! Jesuits infielders-- sophomore third baseman Josh Faciane (10)
and junior short stop Ethan Oddo (7)-- are ready to spring in to action.

 

 

Sophomore Josh Faciane (10) takes advantage of a wild throw
and arrives at third base safely. Soon, Jesuit would have the bases loaded and then....

 

 

Sophomore designated hitter Bubby Riley (2) is hit by a pitch. Bubby takes his base,
and Josh comes home to give the Jays their first round win.
