Dublin is still undefeated this season after their match against Livermore on Thursday, but Livermore came as close as anyone has to beating them. The Dublin Gaels narrowly escaped with a win as the team sidled past the Livermore Cowboys 4-2. While the Gaels didn't have the best season last year (they finished 11-14), it's starting to look like those struggles are a thing of the past.
Andrew Zorinich spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered two runs (both of which were unearned) on five hits. What's more, he gave up only zero walks, the fewest he's had since back in March of 2024.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Evan Salvador, who went 1-for-2 with one triple and one run. That triple was his first of the season. Another player making a difference was Matthew Phelps, who scored a run while going 1-for-2.
