Baseball: Despite batting out of order, Southold prevails
SUFFOLK COUNTY CLASS C TOURNAMENT | FIRST SETTLERS 15, ROYALS 7 Crazy game, this baseball. One inning you’re a potential goat after the opposing team finds you batting out of order.

Aided by two-hitter, Tuckers clinch playoff spot
TUCKERS 9, ROYALS 0 Port Jefferson batters weren’t the only ones baffled by that pitch that Mattituck’s Cameron Burt was throwing, freezing right-handed hitters and giving them a world of trouble.
