Bay State wins 16-10, MSBL American walk off 8-7
The MABL Bay State Division put up 11 unanswered runs after trailing 10-5 to the MABL Atlantic Division, winning by a final score of 16-10.
Armando De Los Santos' clutch 2-out hit knotted the game at 10-10 before the Bay State added 6 more runs, including a steal of home by Dan Riordan, which must be a first in All-Star Game history.
In the second game of the All-Star doubleheader, the MSBL National League (NL) got out to a quick 4-0 lead in the 2nd, but the American League (AL) rallied back and scored 7 unanswered runs to take a 7-4 lead.
Down to their last three outs, the NL squad refused to give up, plating 3 runs in the top of the 9th to tie the game at 7-7.
In the bottom half of the 9th, the lead off man for the AL squad opened up the inning with a double down the left field line, quickly putting himself into scoring position. Moments later, he would score on a single to right, giving the American League the 8-7 walk-off victory.
The fans in attendance got to see two fantastic games played at LeLacheur Park. Congratulations again to all of the All-Stars!
A shout out to Matt Giblin (MABL Tigers/MSBL Giants), who was a member of both winning squads.
