MEDIA, PA- Despite playing three games in the past three days, Radnor took care of business against Penncrest to pick up their fourth straight win and move to 7-1 in the Central League.

After sneaking away from Springfield yesterday with a Joe Krasowski walk-off, Radnor started this one off with the same energy they ended with yesterday, quickly putting Penncrest away with five runs in the first three innings.

On just the first pitch of the game, the Raptors were ready to get to work. Teddy Monahan would lead off with a flyball that with the help of an error reached third base, and Zach Fein would knock him in for the first run of the day.

The next two innings would look pretty similar for the Raptors. In the second, Kyle Miltenberger would double, scoring Will Selbach. Just a few pitches later, Teddy Monahan would knock in a single and this was the beginning of the end for a potential Penncrest comeback.

The third came just as quickly as the second did for Radnor offensively with the help of Daniel Kellis on the mound taking Penncrest down inning by inning. On the day, Kellis took the Raptors through five, striking out eight and allowing no hits.

His offense would pick up his 1-2-3 bottom of the second scoring two more runs coming from a double by Evan Hartman and a groundout by Kyle Miltenberger to bring this one to 5-0 early.

For the next four, the Raptors would cruise with their 5-0 lead until the seventh, when Penncrest would be met with Austin Havertine, but not on the mound. (hint: he’s a dual threat, Central League). After a double by Hayden Goldenberg got runners in scoring position, Austin Havertine hit an inside the park homer to put this game away. In a perfectly quoted moment from the Radnor dugout, “OUR PITCHERS CAN HIT HOMERUNS TOO”- Senior Matt Szychulski.

Penncrest would go up against Blake Havertine to end the game, and in one last hoorah scored a run to make this game 7-1 but Radnor would cruise through to become 7-1 in the Central League and win their fourth straight.

Radnor was led by Daniel Kellis on the mound and Matt Szychulski going 2/2 on the day driving in a run as well as Austin Havertine’s with his inside-the-park homer.

Radnor will finally catch a break this week but will be back to a tough Central League matchup next Tuesday when they take on Garnet Valley (5-5) at home at 4:15.

Penncrest (2-6) will be off the rest of the week as well, but will return at home next Tuesday against Lower Merion (5-3) at 3:45.
