Gators Lose Marathon

Jupiter 4 Palm Beach Gardens 2 (12)

Joey Boyd

Junior Joey Boyd came in to relieve starter Brooks de Montluzin, who had gutted out five innings of 2 run baseball. What happened next was unbelievable!!! Boyd entered the game in the 6th inning with the bases loaded and no outs. He struck out the next three to end the Jupiter rally. That is when the marathon began. The game went 12 innings with the Warriors scoring two runs in the 12th on three Gardens' errors. The story, though, was Boyd. He threw seven innings of no-hit baseball and struck out 16 Jupiter batters. Sadly, though, his incredible effort ended in a loss.
