Menichini, Mountaineers Take Dramatic Game 2 for 2-0 Series Lead
The Winchester Mountaineers got a strong game from starter Kevin Menichini, but it was some clutch hitting that ultimately delivered the win.

The Mountaineers took the 4-3 win over the Riverside Rotters in Game 2 of the League Championship Series in a 14th inning walk-off. The win capped off a fine outing for the right-handed Menichini. Menichini threw 5.1 innings of 4-hit ball in the win, which gave the Mountaineers a 2-0 lead in the best-of-7 series.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the 14th inning, when Winchester designated hitter Harry Williams, facing Jim Autore, had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. It gave the Mountaineers the 4-3 win.

"Walking a team off at the end -- there's no greater feeling," said Williams.

Game 3 is scheduled for Saturday at Rotters Ballpark in Riverside.
