HIGHLIGHTS

Sayville 11, Southampton 10: Ryan Wilson's double in the 12th inning drove in Brock Murtha to lead No. 3 Sayville (16-6) to a walk-off win over No. 11 Southampton in a Suffolk Class A loser's bracket game Thursday. Due to darkness Wednesday night, the game was suspended and picked up in the top of the 11th on Thursday. Jake Russo pitched the 11th and 12th innings and allowed no hits to earn the win. Murtha, who led off the 12th with a double, hit a lead-off homer in the bottom of the seventh to put Sayville down three runs. Later in the inning, Thomas Witt hit a pinch-hit double with two outs to make the score 10-8. Zach Liotta, the next batter hit a ground ball in the first base hole, and the first baseman threw wide of first to the pitcher covering, allowing the tying run to score from second. Murtha also led off the bottom of the eighth with a double, Russo was intentionally walked, and the next batter reached on an error to load the bases. Southampton reliever Thomas Gabriel proceeded to strike out the next three batters and escape the jam. Jayden Pepitone hit a grand slam in the top of the first inning for Southampton. Sayville will travel to No. 2 Rocky Point Friday 4 p.m. If Rocky Point wins they advance to the Suffolk Class A championship series. If Sayville wins, they will face Rocky Point again on Saturday, with the winner advancing to the championship series.
