Two Pitchers Team Up As Stuyvesant PEGLEGS Varsity Defeats Norman Thomas In Shut-Out

Stuyvesant defeated Norman Thomas 10-0 on Monday as two pitchers combined to throw a shutout. Stuyvesant secured the victory thanks to six runs in the fourth inning. Rubin, Owen Potter, Jared Asch, and Daniel Kim each had RBIs in the frame.

In the first inning, the Peglegs got their offense started when Jared Asch singled on the first pitch of the at bat, scoring one run.

Asch led things off on the mound for Stuyvesant. He lasted three innings, allowing two hits and zero runs while striking out nine and walking zero. Asch led Stuyvesantwith two hits in four at bats. Stuyvesant tore up the base paths, as three players stole at least two bases. Kim led the way with two. Stuyvesant was sure-handed and didn’t commit a single error. Luca Bielski made the most plays with 13.

In our first preseason game, the JV had an upset in sight (up 3-1 in the 5th inning at Monroe; leading 3-2 in the 6th). But we lost command of the strike-zone, late and surrendered 6 unanswered Rs mostly on walks. Overall, good effort on defense and on the mound — and maybe we let this one get away — but after this, our guys should feel like they can play with just about anyone. Final: 7-3 loss

Our Peglegs battled GW early and throughout this game.. down 3-2 and down 6-5 there was plenty of fight, and chances. Down 8-5 we loaded the bases with 0 outs… but just couldn’t cash in our opportunities. Then, the wheels fell off a bit, in a game wasn’t near as bad as the final score (14-5) shows. Pitching, Ben Zenker had 4Ks in 4IP but our defense let up, and made him work harder. Max Mah relieved and battled, but again.. we didn’t make the plays behind him, that would have kept this a far closer game. Luca Bielski had a solid game behind the plate, and was walked twice (Ben walked 3x). Max had 3 hits, to lead the offense. Jordan Gray singled and had 2 RBI. Masataka Mizuno, Julian Singer and Jude Rizzo singled. We had 8 BBs and plenty of chances for running up the score but, just didn’t get the big hits today.

At Pier 40, our JV tonight showed its depth & spirit — as 3/4 starters were unable to play/ being stuck in an AP history exam to 6:30 (!). Graphics Campus held this one close, score was 1-0, 1-1, 2-1 across the first 2 innings.. as not much was going our way in the field or base-paths (no need to mention that, here, they know). But our starter, Ben Zenker, battled early, overcame our 6 errors and found an answer within each inning (94 pitches) to keep them down, eventually dominating over 5 innings (12 K’s, 2 H, 2 BB). On offense, Ben batted 2nd and had 3Rs, 2H (double) and 2 RBI. Ben combined with SS Luca Bielski  (triple, 2R) and C Jordan Gray (2H, triple, 2 RBI) for a monster game for today’s 1-2-3 batters. We also had 9 walks (RF Zaid Malik had 2 and scored 2 runs).. and ran all over their catcher/pitchers (notable was Steven Zakin stealing 2nd, 3rd and then causing the game’s only balk). With 5 runs in the bottom of the 5th, we eventually mercy’d them by a 11-1 score.. on Jordan’s “walk-off RBI triple.

Unfortunately today the Peglegs, once again, dropped their first round playoff game and are now done for the season. It has been a great year for the most part. We far exceeded our expectations this season and won some big games but we have to start winning the bigger games.

On a positive note, Jared Asch has the most wins in all of the PSAL AAA and will be getting an award at the championship game at Yankee stadium. Jared finished the season with 6 wins and an ERA of 1.46 and Michael Gillow is 2nd in all of AAA in slugging percentage with .739.

I want to thank all the seniors for their hard work over the years and for putting up with Coach Hahn and myself. I also want to thank Jimmy Wendt for volunteering his time to help coach the team. He was a huge asset to us this year and hope he will return next year.

To the FSB board, Joy DeVries, Olivia Lee, Susan Asch and Stephen Hubbell, none of this season would been possible without you. Thank you for always being there!!!!

To all the alumni and administrators who came out today and always to watch us, it means so much to us that we always have your support. And a special thanks to Mike Schneider who is always generous on giving us the field even though our permits run out.

Our luncheon and awards day will be announced soon and don’t forget the alumni game coming up.  Thank you all for a wonderful season, we will miss our seniors next year.
