In a thrilling cross-river rivalry showdown, Steubenville’s baseball team emerged victorious over Weir with a final score of 2-0. The game was cut short due to inclement weather, but not before Matt Fabbro delivered an outstanding performance on the mound for Big Red.
Fabbro pitched five solid innings, allowing only four singles and striking out three batters with no walks. He also showcased a brilliant pick-off move to keep Weir’s runners off balance. Despite a few errors from his team, Fabbro managed to shut down the opposition and secure the win.
Weir had a chance to score in the fourth inning when they loaded the bases with no outs. However, a heads-up play from Steubenville’s defense, including a crucial tag at home plate, preserved the shutout for Fabbro.
Steubenville’s offense struggled to score against Weir’s starter, Liam Williamson, but managed to push across two runs in the fourth and fifth innings. Bubby Reese’s RBI single and Hayden Hicks’ double were enough to secure the victory for Big Red.
This win marks the second time Steubenville has defeated Weir this season, showcasing their dominance in the cross-town rivalry. With a strong pitching performance from Fabbro and timely hitting from their lineup, Steubenville continues to impress on the baseball diamond.
