Nina: Rafacz drove in the winning run in the Spartans' thrilling eight-inning victory over Richards. His teammate, Mike Yacko, did pitch a gem. The cutline on the photo has been edited to reflect as much ... thanks for your help!

Jessie P is a quiet giant - a clutch hitter that always comes through, then blends back in to the background. Stud player with a humble demeanor. Go Jessie!!!
