Titans Drop Rubber Game in Pomona

OFFICIAL FRONTIER LEAGUE BOX SCORE
Pomona, NY - In a back-and-forth finale, the Ottawa Titans (50-43) fell by a 13-4 final in the rubber match to the New York Boulders (49-43) on Thursday.
Making his biggest start of his young career, left-hander Ryan Rembisz (ND, 0-1) got through a clean opening frame on just seven pitches before the Boulders jumped out in front in the second. With a pair of hits in scoring position to start the frame, Alfredo Marte scored one with an RBI groundout before Enzo Apodaca lifted a sac fly to left, making it 2-0 in the early going.
In the third, Jason Agresti and Santino Rosso connected for RBI knocks, making it 4-0. The rookie southpaw exited after just two and two-thirds, allowing four runs on five hits, walking one, and striking out two.
Despite a slow start, the Titans got themselves back in the game in the fourth against left-hander Isaac Rohde (ND, 3-3) to cut into the deficit. A Cristian Inoa single started the rally to get the visitors on the board before Victor Cerny brought home another with a double.
Down by a pair, the Titans scratched across two more in the fifth to tie the game. With runners on the corners, Robert Chayka's fielder's choice made it a one-run game before AJ Wright tied it up with an RBI single to left.
Getting a combined two and a third from Jon Beymer and Brandon Marklund, things got away from right-hander Mark Simon (loss, 0-1) in the sixth inning.
With a walk and a hit batter aboard, back-to-back two-out RBI hits from Agresti and Fritz Genther broke the tie, putting the Boulders ahead for good at 6-4.
In the eighth, the Boulders put the game out of reach by sending ten to the plate, scoring five times against Taylor Wright, and once against Mason Collins as part of a six-run inning to blow it open. Before all was said and done, Collins allowed two runs (one earned) over an inning and a third to finish the night on the mound.
Jackie Urbaez went 3-for-5 in the rubber game, while Justin Fogel and Kaiden Cardoso posted multi-hit nights. Robert Chayka walked twice - as the Chicago product has now drawn 12 walks over his last eight games.
The club finishes the regular season with a road record of 26-22, the best in franchise history.
