Mariano Who?
In Afton’s first little league game of the season, visiting Afton beat Greene 8 to 7 in three innings of play (ended early on account of it being a school night). After two innings at second base, closer Joe DeVona was called to the mound, where he recorded two strikeouts and the save in his pitching debut. Afton remains on the road this weekend, when they hope to carry their winning momentum into an afternoon game against Hancock.

Given the Yankee’s pitching woes, it is not entirely improbable for Yankee scouts to appear at our budding phenom’s next game !! If batters continue to be mowed down at the current rate, a suitable nickname will be required soon, since no successful reliever can be known only by his given name. How about Joe “The Express” DeVona.
