The Trojans were both Aggressive and Relentless on Tuesday in Nazareth in an 11-1 Victory with Mike Jenkins on the mound. Four PM start times are problematic if reporting is not your full time gig so we will pick it up offensively in the Top of the 4th. In the field and from the mound through 3 innings Jenkins and the Trojans had retired Nazareth in order as they would do again in the fourth. From the mound Jenkins was dominant once again with the only real threat in the fifth inning when the Blue Eagles were able to squeeze across a rare run against Jenkins and the Trojan Defense. On the day Jenkins was workmanlike yielding 3 hits a rare run and a walk through 6 innings with Adam Mellinger coming on in the seventh to close out the Victory for the Trojan Lineup that had staked Jenkins to a four run lead through the first three innings!

In the Top of the 4th Will Algard led off with a walk stole second and scored on a Mike Jenkins single. In the Top of 5 CK Kinsley ROE went 1st to 3rd on a Matt Mellinger single and later scored as the other half of the M&A Brothers Adam Mellinger singled. Will Algard then singled scoring Matt Mellinger and the Trojan lead was up to 7 after the Top of the 5th. The Blue Eagles then squeaked out their lone run of the game in the bottom of the 5th. Top 6th CK Kinsley walked followed by a Matt Mellinger walk but the score held at 7-1. Jenkins and the Trojans worked around a single in the bottom of the sixth maintaining the lead at 7-1 In a flurry of Top of the 7th activity Dylan Miller walked stole 2nd and to 3rd on passedball, Carson Fracas walked Ryan Giovenco goes 1st to 3rd Ty Conrad with a single and the Trojans head to the bottom of the 7th 11-1. Adam Mellinger on in relief of Jenkins and another Trojan Victory
