SG G-Men get best of Nolan, 6-4

Mike Sciacca

Nolan may have won the regular season AAA Division championship, but

the team has become a target in Laguna Beach Little League postseason

play.

The SG G-Men continued to roll in the playoffs by adding Nolan to

their list of victims, as they scored a 6-4 upset.

The G-Men went up against Nolan starting pitcher Michael Opera but

went on to churn out six runs off the ace and reliever Ryan Raffo with a

balanced offensive output of Andrew Shapero, Jackson Christy, Tyler

MacRae, Ian Greene and Tyce Phillipi.

Raphael Vickers went the distance for the G-Men and held Nolan to just

four hits in a standout performance.

Vickers was backed by a defense that featured shortstop Jake Glazer,

Matt Anderson, Sean Kimball, Alex Gromet and Robbie Quellmalz.

Nolan was led on offense by Michael Neihbur’s double and hits by Shane

Korber, Billy Vail, Sean Spera and Kellan Lindley.

Catcher Stevie Contursi, Paul Soloman, Garrett Hartwell and Clay

Steele paced Nolan on defense.
