Staten Island Tacks 9-3 Loss on West Virginia
A nice crowd turned out for a clash between the Staten Island Pizza Rats and West Virginia Black Bears.

The Staten Island Pizza Rats powered past the West Virginia Black Bears, 9-3, at Dutchess Stadium. Tobey Hulsey provided some of the pop. He went 2-4 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 runs. The winning pitcher was Rayan Peña. His record now stands at 2-0. The right-hander went 6 innings, allowing 3 runs on 7 hits for the Pizza Rats.

Staten Island used the hitting of Joselito Matos to pick up the win. The left fielder clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the Pizza Rats on top, 3-0. For the game, Matos had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"If you don't take any pitches off, you've got a chance to impact the game, and that's what we did," said Staten Island skipper Max Collison.

The win makes Staten Island 15-16.
