Gratta drives in 3 runs to Ignite Panthers Offense
In the 11-4 Buckeye Local win over Chuluota, the impact of Nick Gratta was substantial. Gratta, who is tied for 6th in the SC in stolen bases with 12, went 2-3 with a home run, a double, a walk, and was hit by a pitch. He scored 3 times and drove in 3. Earning his 1st save for Buckeye Local was Luis Castillo. Buckeye Local has now reeled off 6 straight wins.

With Buckeye Local leading 5-1 in the bottom of the sixth, Gratta batted against Chuluota pitcher Danny de Anda. Gratta hit a fastball to right for a 3-run home run. His 54th home run of the season put the Panthers on top, 8-1.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Gratta told the Buckeye Local Daily. "It's as simple as that."
