    Game  6

    Redlegs 12, Rangers 4

    Eight ballplayers wasn't enough to take down the defending league champions in the latest edition of the Backyard Battle at Madison high school. 

    ​

    Joe Becker ran into early trouble against the Camden Redlegs as the Rangers fell behind 2-0 after an inning. Behind 3-0 in the bottom of the second, Brandon Marshall led off the inning with his league-leading second home run of the season.  But Joey Watson's 2-run HR put the Redlegs up 5-1. In the bottom of the third, Jonmarc Lippincott and Robert Riley singled and Marshall's groundball through the legs of the third baseman allowed Lippincott to score.  Mike Hartman's 3-run HR capped a four-run inning for the Redlegs in the 4th.  The Redlegs expanded there lead to 11-2 with a pair of runs in the fifth. Marshall drove home Riley in the bottom of the 5th to make it 11-3. The Rangers final tally came off the bat of Marshall yet again in the 7th.

     

    Riley tossed a pair of scoreless innings to wrap up the game. 
     

    Offensive highlights: Robert Riley 4-for-5, double, 2R; Brandon Marshall 3-for-5, HR, 3RBI.

     

    Historical Notes: The Rangers are 3 at-bats away from 20,000 career at-bats.
