Bridgewater-Raritan beats Somerville Sunday night

Greg Grande's two-run double in the second inning turned out to be the game-winning hit as Bridgewater-Raritan beat Somerville 4-1 at Prince Rodgers Field, snapping the Pioneers' 10-game winning streak.

The Panthers also handed Somerville senior ace lefty Ryan Zamorsky his first loss of the season. Zamorsky is 5-1. He struck out five, walked three and allowed five hits. He allowed two earned in six innings.

Senior Andrew Priece got the save for Bridgewater-Raitan. Somerville had runners on second and third in the sixth, but Priece struck out Eric Fowler and Chris Venditto to escape.

Since Gill St. Bernards surprised Bridgewater-Raritan in the Somerset County Tournament Saturday, Zamorsky started Sunday night. He will start again Saturday when fourth-seeded Somerville meets No. 13th Gill at White Oak Park in Branchburg.
