Dylan Long went 3-for-3 with three RBI, and Jeff Goldrosen went 2-for-2 with one RBI for the Raptors.

Bard got up in the top of the first of Game Two, 1-0, on a two-out RBI single by Goldrosen, but the Tigers resumed their torrid hitting with one run in the first, four in the second and one in the third to go up, 6-1.

That was enough for Rory Little (Burnt Hills, NY), who gave up two runs on eight hits over seven innings. Daniel Zeglen (Scotia, NY) went 2-for-4 with two triples and three RBI, and Patrick Mylott (Aurora, OH) went 3-for-4 with a double and three RBI.
