    The bottom of the lineup helped the Eagles capture an 11-0 victory in 5 innings over Obama on Tuesday.  Anthony Gerri, Adam Smith, and Joshue Perez combined for five of the team's 10 hits in the victory. They scored three runs and drove in five.  Aggressive base running directed by Coach Bennett got the Eagles on board in the bottom of the first inning after Alex Grullon doubled down the left field line. The Eagles scored on a passed ball, each scoring one run. Adam Smith went three for three, with a single, triple and a home run. Pitcher Alex Grullon faced 20 batters, had one hit in 5 innings and 9 strikeouts.
