One baserunner crossed home plate. Another followed. And another … and another … and another.

Would the top of the third inning ever end?

It did – 14 runs, 10 hits, seven walks, and a whole lotta high-fives later.

Those weren’t the Bugs Bunny’s Gashouse Gorillas. They were the North Jersey Cardinals and they did what they do best – crush the baseball.

The Cardinals went on to beat Futures White, 22-8, in the 15U Diamond Nation World Series on Wednesday.

Coach Frank Dasti’s team pounded out 14 hits, including four triples and three doubles.

The Cardinals have now piled up 45 runs in running their record to 3-0 in the tournament.

But they never put things together quite like they did during that third inning on Wednesday – and likely never will again.

“We know that we have a strong lineup,” Dasti said. “We have 11 guys who can hit. Even guys on our bench can hit.”

Liam Melvin and Dominic Labisi provided the offensive fireworks but even these heavy hitters acknowledge that batters box intangibles like aggressive at bats, execution of small details and putting the ball in play are the ingredients for getting crooked numbers on the scoreboard.

The North Jersey Cardinals 14U Red squad had 10 of its 11 players put the ball in play, they collected eight hits, accounted for two sacrifice bunts which set the stage for crucial runs and took advantage of four errors in an 8-3 victory over Cage Academy Elite in the Spring Fever Tournament on Friday evening at Diamond Nation in Flemington. 

NO-HITTER! Congratulations to Cardinals 17U Red pitcher Christopher Rodrigues (r) on his complete game no-hitter in the Cardinals 9-0 win over Complete Game Colonials in the USABL Frazier Elite WS tournament this weekend. Nick Filipponi (l) was on the receiving end.

Baseball math - What do you get when you add 4 Cardinals pitchers and 2 Cardinals catchers together? Answer - a combined no-hitter in the Cardinals' 14-0 win over Langan Prospects in the New England College Prospects Showcase. (L-R P Jason Habedank, C Nick Filipponi, P Julian Schultz.
