The No. 1 pitcher was sick and the No. 2 pitcher struggled so Londonderry coach Wayne MacDougall took a chance and called on freshman outfielder Maryellen Leach in the second inning. She went the rest of the way in Londonderry's 8-6 win over previously 3-0 Concord. The Tide scored twice in the bottom of the seventh and had runners on second and third. But Leach cooly retired the final two batters.
"She hadn't been pitching but she will now!" said MacDougall.
