The Bristol 15-16 year-olds captured the District 21 baseball championship Monday night with a resounding win over Levittown-Pacific. Bristol thumped the opposition 15-3 July 13 at Williamson Park behind a strong effort from winning pitcher Kelvin Ortiz.
Offensively, for Bristol, shortstop Jason Gonzalez went 3-for-4 including two doubles. Outfielder James Petrino went 2-for-3 and outfielder Ryan Cullen hit 2-for-2 including a double.
Bristol began bracket play last Friday night with a 5-2 victory over Levittown International. Their winning ways continued Saturday with a 3-1 extra-inning triumph over Morrisville.
On Sunday night, Bristol punched its ticket to the championship with a 4-2 win Levittown-Pacific. The winning pitcher was righthander Kyle Weik, who also recorded the victory over Levittown-International. Kyle will be a senior this fall at Bristol Senior High School.
Bristol went two-and-out in this tourney last season. Two years ago, it made it all the way to the championship after dominating the losers’ bracket only to get crushed by Morrisville in the title tilt.
The closest Bristol came to letting the title get away from them this year was - you guessed it - in their battle with Morrisville. Trailing, 1-0, in the top of the seventh, soon-to-be-senior Carlos Rodriguez hit a double to drive in the tying run.
Bristol won the game with two runs in the top of the eighth on bases loaded walks drawn by Rodriguez and Weik.
