 Ramsey says the entire team has been playing well. "Quite frankly, so far, it's been a true team effort. We have gotten solid contributions from every player on the roster." In the 15-0 victory, Merrick Baldo pitched four innings, allowing only one hit and no runs. Colin Livingston blasted a three-run double in the first inning to start the game off.
