June 30, 2016 - Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League (PGCBL)
Elmira Pioneers News Release
The Pioneers met with the Newark Pilots again to complete the home and home series. This game would determine who would pull ahead in the West Division standings in the PGCBL.
The Pilots got a run in the first, third and fifth inning to bring the score 3-0.
The Pioneers finally broke through in the sixth after Ty Denzer (Kansas) lined a double down the first base line to start the inning. Jason Patnick (Manhattan) would bring in Denzer on a sacrifice fly to bring the score 3-1.
