SSZ has highlights and post-game reaction of Middletown South’s 9-5 win over Marlboro

Middletown South 9 Marlboro 5

Johnny Zega pitched 5.2 shutout innings in relief and belted a two run homer as Middletown South wiped out a 5-0 1st inning deficit with 9 unaswered runs in a 9-5 triumph.  The Eagles got a solo homer from Austin Markmann in the second and then tallied four runs in the 3rd.  Markmann’s RBI single tied the game at five.  A bases loaded walk in the 4th gave the Eagles the lead for good and Zega launched a 2-run blast in the 5th.  Watch the highlights here:
