The Somers Tuskers will be defending their home field for the first time this season when they go up against the Tuckahoe Tigers at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday. The two teams are strolling into their games after big wins in their previous games.
Somers is coming home in high spirits after they had to open their season on the road against Greeley. The Tuskers' pitchers stepped up to hand the Quakers a 12-0 shutout on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Tuckahoe took care of business in their home opener (and then some) on Tuesday. Everything went their way against Haldane as they made off with a 16-1 win. The Tigers have beaten the Blue Devils the last five times they've met, but they better watch out: this was the closest the Blue Devils has come to flipping the script.
Tuckahoe let Jay Romeo and Rocco Briante run wild. Romeo went a perfect 4-for-4 with four RBI, one stolen base, and one run, while Briante scored three runs and stole a base while getting on base in all four of his plate appearances. Those four hits gave Romeo a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Ben Silvestri, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 1-for-2.
