5/7 SV vs. Butler
SV came out with the win yesterday against Butler that was solidified by Dave Coradi by hitting a two run homerun in the 6th inning giving the Raiders a 7-5 victory. The win was another fundamentally sound performance by the team with offensive contributions from Jake Double hitting a triple, Jay Condit who was a homerun away from from hitting for the cycle, and John Batista with two singles to get the offense started. Nick Kendrick pitched 5 and 2/3 innings and while he issued a lot of walks to Butler, he was able to successfully hold them off by recording strikeouts and getting outs in key situations. Sam Bucci finished the game not allowing any runs and shutting down the Butler offense.
5/5 SV vs. Pine Richland

5/1 SV vs. Shaler
The Raiders unfortunately came up short on Friday, losing both games of the double header. The two teams played two five inning games. The Raiders had a multitude of opportunities, but lost 3-2 in the first game and 6-3 in the second game. We received good pitching performances from Max Vickerman, Blake Henderson, and Nick Kendrick. The Raiders threatened a few times with runners in scoring position, but could not drive home enough runs to solidify a win. We have two games left in the season and look forward to finishing with two more victories.

We scored again in the 6th inning from a collection of hits from Jay Condit, John Batista, Zach Motyl, and Derrick Wood. As a team we played an excellent game and game 100% effort until the last play of the game which was a diving play attempt in center field by Jay Condit, who made a great diving catch earlier in the game. Nick Kendrick and Matt Kloos both had great pitching performances on the mound by registering 9 strikeouts and only 2 walks together. Great effort Raiders!
4/19 SV vs. Mt. Lebanon
Mt. Lebanon it was more of the same with too many errors in the field which allowed the opposition to prevail. Great pitching performances from Chris Dorogy, Sam Bucci, and Zach Motyl.
