The Prime Bahama Angels completed a two-game sweep of the Ports International Phillies on Saturday to win the Rookie Division Championship. The Angels take home the championship a short 12 months following a winless season last year. 6


The Phillies could not compete with the Angels’ offense, which generated six runs in the first inning, and three more runs in each of the following innings. The 10-run rule ended the game in the fourth inning, after the Angels went up 12-2.


There were a few bright spots for the Phillies—Glen Ritchie and Sean Wrinkle each crossed home plate in the first inning—but they were few and far between. Tavis Simms nearly scored as well, but tumbled over the Angels catcher and was tagged out at home before he could touch the plate.


Despite a few individual defensive plays by the Phillies, the team seemed to lose any momentum they had built when the Angels’ Jonathan Key hit another home run—his second of the series—that brought in three more scores. 4


The Angel defense also kept the Phillies off balance by recording three-up-and-three down in the second, third, and fourth innings, to end the game.
