Flyers Beat St. Catharines, 3-2
Crowds lined up early in front of Newark Fields, eagerly awaiting the start of the 2021 ABA Class-A League season. On the mound was Scott Staffieri for the visiting St. Catharines Blue Jays and Dusty Milligan for the hometown Newark Flyers. In a spirited contest, the Flyers pulled out the win, defeating the Blue Jays by the score of 3-2. Especially impressive was Dusty Milligan.

The defining moment came in the bottom of the 13th for Newark. That's when Alex Ochoa hit a solo home run off 25-year old right-handed pitcher Mario Hernandez to win the game. The home crowd went wild.

"Dusty was dictating to their hitters," said Newark manager Carlos Almendarez.
