Following its first loss of the season, the Hendricken baseball team was in search of a little relief in its trip to Lincoln on Tuesday afternoon.
Coming on in the third inning, Fleury gave the Hawks what they needed most – consistency – on the rubber and with Hawks taking advantage of everything the Lions gave them, Fleury made sure their lead didn’t go anywhere in a 7-3 win.
Hendricken was looking for a bounceback performance following last week’s shutout loss to East Providence, but ran into trouble early as starter Seamus Feller battled a tough strike zone and walked in two runs.
Fleury gave the Hawks what they needed. He pitched himself into a jam in the fourth – loading the bases with no outs – but escaped giving up just one run. Fleury pitched to contact, Parker Boyd made a couple big plays in center field, and eliminated any chance Lincoln had at coming back. Fleury, a junior, threw five innings and gave up four hits and three walks while striking out six.

Hendricken Baseball35 / 35Take a Look: Hendricken finds sweet relief in win over Lincoln on TuesdayGreg Fleury, Hendricken BaseballAfter being quieted by East Providence, the Hawks’ offense wasn’t an electric factory against Lincoln, but they managed to scrap up runs thanks in part to five errors from the Lions. The Hawks led 4-3 after the fourth, but a two-out Lincoln misplay led to one run, with two more coming in on a triple by Yadier Blanco and a single by Jude Monti.
Cullen Crain led Hendricken at the plate, going 2-for-2 with one RBI and one run. Boyd scored two runs and Dylan Poloski had two RBI.
Carsen Mellen had a productive day atop the Lincoln order, going 3-for-4 with two runs in the loss.
The torrid Townies rang up their seventh win of the young season (7-1) thanks to a sixth-inning bunt by Kyle Desrosiers that brought home Aidan Martins for the game's only score. Martins opened the inning with a single and advanced to second on an error, then to third on a sacrifice fly.
It was the only blemish on an otherwise stellar outing by Thunderbolts starter Ed McClung, who scattered four hits over six innings, with two walks and five strikeouts.
For the Townies, Ben Hallene was all but untouchable, striking out five, with three hits allowed and one walk in the complete-game victory.
Offense was at a premium for both teams, with East Providence outhitting Cranston East 4-3. Max Correiro, JJ Renaud, Jamison Sydney and Martins each recorded hits for EP. Marcelo Acosta, Anthony Pimental and McClung got hits for the 'Bolts.
Down 2-0, the Rams came alive in the second inning as they scored five runs on only two hits to take a 5-2 lead. The big hit was by Eli Merejildo, the No. 9 hitter in the lineup, who singled in two runs.
But La Salle wasn't finished at the plate as they continued to put distance between them and the Oakers by putting up seven more runs in the fourth inning.
On the hill, Alex Amaral was as good as he had to be. He allowed four hits and three runs over five innings, striking out three and walking three to pick up the win.
Jayce Bessette, Axel DaSilva and Merejildo each had two hits in the game with Merejildo driving in a game-best three RBI. While the Rams had 10 hits as a team, they also showed patience as they compiled 11 walks in the contest.
John Stembridge, Griffin Frenze, and Brady Riley each collected one hit and drove in a run apiece for the Oakers in the loss.
Runs were at a premium in this pitcher's duel between Liam Monahan and Alex Milano.
The Falcons' Milano struck out 10 and scattered two hits, while the Clippers' Monahan struck out three and allowed five hits. But the Clippers were able score just enough and hold off a late threat by the Falcons to clinch the home victory.
Cumberland's first run came in the fourth inning when Micah Cousineau led off with a single, advanced to second on a Chase Austin single, then to third, then home on a wild pitch.
