Bath then played Wayland ( last year's Steuben County Champion ) on Saturday and rebounded with a 10-3 victory at the Bath VA. Wayland had already beaten Bath 3 times this summer, so this was a big win for Bath !!Mike Rossi spun a three hitter and struck out 12 Wayland batters for his 4th win this summer. Billy Crowe ( 2008 junior ) led Bath with a 4-5 day knocking in two runs. Brett Havens ( 2008 senior ) had three hits and three RBI's increasing his team leading average to .395 for the summer. Drew Seager ( 2008 soph. ) had a single and RBI double to also pace Bath. Joe Wallace ( avoca ) took the loss for Wayland.
Both Corning and Bath will play on Wednesday, with both an opponent and site to be named later today.
