Talk Bronx New York

 

Bronx Science had no reason to pitch to Riverdale/Kingsbridge junior shortstop Nelyssa Rosario. Not in the fourth inning. Not with two runners on. Not ahead by four runs.

“She’s just an unbelievable hitter,” Wolverines coach Tom Morris said.

So, Morris called for pitcher Kelly Chewens to intentionally walk Rosario. The sophomore hurler had the right idea on the first pitch, but the second one she threw directly over the plate and Rosario belted a three-run home run.

RKA got within one run on the homer, then took the lead in the fifth, but Bronx Science tied the game up in the sixth and went ahead in the seventh in what was a wild, 14-11 road win against Riverdale/Kingsbridge on Tuesday in PSAL Bronx A softball.

“It was a lot closer than it needed to be,” Morris said.

The victory puts Bronx Science (9-2 Bronx A) in the driver’s seat for its first division title since moving up to the ‘A’ in 2006. Alexandra Krawczuk went 2-for-5 with four RBIs and a run scored, Victoria Cannon was 3-for-5 with three RBIs and two runs scored and Kayla Martinez and Mackenzie Charter each drove in two runs for the Wolverines.

Because of multiple rain-outs, Science is behind most teams in the Bronx in amount of games played. Stevenson, which the Wolverines beat Monday, is 9-3, RKA is 10-4 and defending division champ Clinton is 9-4. Science still needs to play Lehman and Kennedy this week, then Clinton, Stuyvesant and Environmental Studies next week.

“We’re gonna have to bring it every game,” Morris said. “We can’t take anything for granted.”
