NEAA Dodgers Finish First in Champs Wood Bat 19 and Under League

The 19 and under NEAA Dodgers rode strong pitching and explosive hitting to wrap up the wood bat regular season undefeated with a 6-0 record and became the number one seed for the playoffs. In their wins the Dodgers outscored their opponents 38-2. The starting rotation of Greg Bilikas, Mike Martignetti, Vin Lopriore and Mark Fusco were completely dominant on the mound as no starter gave up more than 4 hits in any one game. The Dodgers also flashed their trademark airtight defense making all the plays whenever they were called upon. In addition to their pitching the all-around play of Joan Figueroa, Nick Iudiciani, Bob Mello, Ryan Carvalho and Rick Martignetti keyed the Dodger’s dominance. Next up for the Dodgers is the playoffs and a semi-final match-up with the Boston Padres.
