Suburban League Showdown: Aurora Tops Nordonia, 6-2

[Yappi]

The Aurora Greenmen picked up a 6-2 victory on the road against Suburban League rival Nordonia, continuing their impressive start to the 2017 season.

Aurora (6-1) received five solid innings out of junior right hander Michael Sapp, who picked up his first win of the season, allowing two hits and giving up two runs – both of which were unearned.

Earlier in the week, Sapp had a rough outing against Highland in another Suburban League match and Aurora coach Michael Brancazio was proud of his ability to bounce back with a short turnaround between starts.

“I was pleased with Michael,” Brancazio said. “He struggled Monday, so what I wanted to do was get him the ball early as soon as I could. So we slotted him to start today and I was very pleased with what he did. This is what he did last year. He commanded the strike zone. He was not afraid to throw inside and really commanded everything very well. I thought it was a sign of toughness going back from Monday to where he is now.”
