Williamsport’s offense recorded two late game home runs as Jackson Mayo hit a 391-foot solo shot to centerfield in the eighth inning, his second round tripper in two nights, and Marquis Jackson had a 388-foot home run down the right-field line that brought in TJ Racherbaumer in the ninth inning.
Max Mandler was a perfect 2 for 2 at the plate, reaching safely all five times he stepped into the box with a single, a double, three walks, two stolen bases, three runs scored and an RBI. Jackson and Racherbaumer each recorded a three-hit night as Jackson Mayo recorded the other two-hit performances.
Every Williamsport player recorded at least one hit in the game.
