Teddy Bear Shuts Out PeoplesBank, 15–0

Kelleher-Mochak deals five scoreless as Kagan drives in four in a dominant Monday rout

Monday, June 8 · South Hadley High School

Teddy Bear Pools and Spas wasted no time Monday evening at South Hadley High School, sending eight men to the plate in the bottom of the first and not looking back en route to a 15–0 blanking of PeoplesBank. The margin was never in question.

The first inning established the tone with swift and relentless efficiency. Bailey Griggs drew a walk that scored a run, Xavion Maldonado doubled to bring home two more, a PeoplesBank error allowed another pair to score, Sean Rosemond drew a walk to push across yet another, and Alex Gochinski grounded out with enough to score one more. Six runs — before PeoplesBank could exhale.

The scoring resumed in the second when Travis Kagan singled to plate one, and the third inning became an exercise in patience and plate coverage. Ray Toth hit a sacrifice fly, Willie Landman singled to center, Griggs singled to right, Kagan grounded into a fielder's choice, Ty Evans doubled to center, Rosemond singled down the right-field line, and Ryan Magni singled down the left-field line — each driving in a run. Seven different players contributed to that inning. Kagan finished the night with four RBI on a single hit, the most efficient line on the card.

Nate Kelleher-Mochak was untouchable on the mound. The starter worked five innings without allowing a run, giving up just two hits, striking out four, and walking one. It was the kind of outing that makes a winning pitcher's night feel almost anticlimactic — he threw strikes, got outs, and watched his offense do the rest.

Jackson Lavalley absorbed the loss for PeoplesBank, lasting just one inning and allowing one run on one hit. The final score reflected a difficult evening for the visitors, who managed only two hits on the night — one apiece from Hogan G and Macdonald.

Teddy Bear collected 10 hits as a club, with Magni, Rosemond, and Maldonado each going 2-for-the-night. Equally notable was the team's discipline at the plate: eight walks drawn, with Griggs and Gochinski each earning two. Teddy Bear also played a clean game in the field — no errors, with Evans handling the most chances at five. On this Monday, everything worked.

Teddy Bear Rolls Past

Drobiak goes four for the W as Teddy Bear's offense erupts for 17 hits

Friday · June 5, 2026

Teddy Bear Pools and Spas came to play from the opening pitch Friday evening, stringing together three singles in the top of the first to open the scoring. Landman got things started with an RBI single, and Teddy Bear never looked back, pulling away from St. Joseph's Saints for a 12–6 final.

The visitors extended their lead methodically in the second inning. Toth doubled down the left-field line and Jimenez followed with a triple to center, each driving in a run and pushing the margin to three. Another run crossed in the third when Rosemond doubled down the left-field line on an 0–2 count in a patient, opportunistic at-bat that kept the pressure on St. Joseph's starter Jack Feltovic.

Feltovic absorbed the punishment for three innings, ultimately charged with six runs on 11 hits with two strikeouts and no walks before departing. The right-hander had no margin for error against a lineup that was putting the barrel on the ball early and often.

The game was effectively put away in the top of the fifth. Teddy Bear Pools sent 17 batters to the plate across the game and concentrated the knockout blow in one five-run burst: Toth singled to score two, then Griggs tripled to center, plating three more. The inning signaled a long night for the St. Joseph's bullpen.

Drobiak earned the win on the mound, turning in four solid innings of work. He surrendered six hits and four runs, struck out one, and walked one — a workmanlike line for a starter who didn't need to be spectacular with that kind of run support behind him.

St. Joseph's was not without fight. Devin Slattery was the offensive bright spot, going 3-for-4 at the top of the lineup, and Pat Fitzgibbons drove in two runs in the middle of the order, finishing 2-for-4. The Saints collected nine hits as a club and turned a double play, but the deficit never permitted a sustained rally.

Teddy Bear, for their part, spread the wealth across the lineup. Landman, Jimenez, Maldonado, and Toth each had three hits on the night, with Griggs and Toth pacing the RBI column at three apiece. Ryan Magni and Rosemond added multiple-hit games of their own. The club finished with 17 hits and also turned one double play in the field.

St. Joseph's will look to regroup when they travel to face BankESB in their next contest.

Saints Stay Perfect

 

St. Joseph's Saints 9, Turners Falls Athletic Club 4

The St. Joseph's Saints rode a powerful first-inning surge to defeat the Turners Falls Athletic Club 9-4 on Thursday afternoon at Frontier Regional High School.

The Saints wasted no time getting on the board, striking for four runs in the top of the first inning. The opening salvo was fueled by a Turners Falls defensive error, a clutch two-run single from Pat Fitzgibbons, and an RBI single from Brandon Magni. St. Joseph's padded their lead in the third inning when Dillon Slattery drove in a run with a sacrifice fly, ultimately tagging Turners Falls starter Logan Cormier for eight runs (four earned) on seven hits over four innings of work.

Turners Falls battles back with patience at the plate, drawing nine total walks during the game—led by two apiece from Cormier and Kyle Barnes. Dylen Richardson, Cole Boisvert, and Phelps each drove in a run for Turners Falls AC, but they were unable to close the gap against St. Joseph's starter Jackson Hayes. The crafty left-hander earned the victory, limiting Turners Falls to three hits and just one earned run over four innings despite battling through six walks. Kevin Dupras pitched in relief to secure the win.

The Saints' offense racked up nine hits on the day, anchored by an impressive performance from Fitzgibbons. Holding down the cleanup spot, Fitzgibbons went a perfect 2-for-2 with two RBIs, two walks, and two stolen bases. Team teammates Jake Hayes and Brandon Magni also turned in multi-hit performances with two hits each.

St. Joseph's will look to carry this momentum into their home matchup against Teddy Bear Pools on Friday, while Turners Falls resets for their next contest.

Saints Roll Past Spartans 12-0 Behind Dominant Night From Fitzgibbons and Irzyk

 at

Tri-County Baseball, Western Mass — Tuesday, June 2, 2026

---

The St. Joseph's Saints made quick work of the Daniel O'Connell's Sons Spartans Tuesday night at South Hadley High School, rolling to a 12-0 victory behind a six-RBI performance from reigning Ziemiam Award winner Pat Fitzgibbons, and a lights-out outing from starter Matt Irzyk.

Fitzgibbons did half of his damage with one swing when he doubled in the second inning to clear the bases, driving in three, then added a sacrifice fly in the fifth for two more. 

Joey DiMichele set the table all night. He tripled in the first, scoring two, and drew a key walk in the second to load the bases for Fitzgibbons. Jake Hayes went two-for-three and swiped a pair of bases. Greg Vouros and Devin Slattery each drew two walks as the Saints worked the count patiently all evening, collecting eight free passes as a team.

Irzyk was the story on the mound. The right-hander went the full five innings, surrendering just two hits, striking out six, and walking nobody. Sixty-two pitches, forty-two for strikes. He was never in trouble.

For the Daniel O'Connell's Sons Spartans, who are making their first run through the Tri-County schedule in the club's inaugural season, Ramos and Kreis had the only hits off Irzyk. Starter Merced lasted three and two-thirds before giving way to Rosado, who kept the Saints hitless the rest of the way but couldn't prevent the damage from compounding. 

These two very young clubs will meet again three more times this summer, and as their rosters evolve with players returning from college, we look forward to seeing some very good baseball being played.
