Roberts drills a three-run homer in the opening inning as Tamaqua, managed by Bob Agosti, jumps out to a 4-0 lead and then connects for a grand slam in the fourth. He ends his evening with a two-run bomb in the fifth frame. The winners also receive homers from Bo Rottet and Anthony Agosti, while Dallas Shafer pitches a five-hitter. Shafer allows just one run and three walks while striking out five.
