Class A North

No. 1 Manalapan 4, No. 3 CBA 3 (15 Innings)

Sophomore Tom Guidice lined a game-winning RBI single with the bases loaded and one out in the bottom of the 15th and the Braves (15-0, 9-0) prevailed with their 15th straight win in a game that spanned two days and 4 1/2 total hours.

Guidice also tied the game in the bottom of the seventh on Tuesday with an infield pop-up with the bases loaded that dropped between pitcher Evan Mahns and first baseman Braedin Hunt and scored two runs.

Senior center fielder Mike Kuver made a critical defensive play in the top of the 15th when he cut-off a line drive to the gap by CBA shortstop Tommy DiTullio and fired to second base to cut down DiTullio on a bang-bang play.

After senior and winning pitcher Jake Pellecchia led off the bottom of the 15th with a single, Kuver dropped down a successful sacrifice. CBA (9-4, 5-4) walked junior Nick DiPietrantonio intentionally and after a pitching change, new pitcher Connor Baksh walked Andrew Lore to load the bases.

Guidice got to a 1-1 count against Baksh and jumped on the next offering for a line drive into center field that dropped in front of Ben Settino, scored Pellecchia and ended the marathon rivalry game.
