After Ryan Orth scored on a throwing error, Spotswood charges out to Breckyn DeAngelis, who reached on an E5 that won their opening round Central Jersey Group 2 playoff game against Monmouth 1-0 in 8 innings on May 22, 2023 in Spotswood. (Screenshot from video submitted by Glenny Fredricks)
On the opening day of the NJSIAA state baseball tournament, 15 teams advanced to the sectional quarterfinal round later this week.
Top-seed Ridge was among those advancing, while Spotswood scored a walk-off win in eight at home against Monmouth. They got in when Breckyn DeAngelis hit a chopper to the left side that the Falcons’ third-baseman charged on, but threw wild to first base, allowing Ryan Orth to score from second on the play.
