Latimer forecasts $16M increase in county fund balance In a preview of his 2021 State of the County speech, Westchester County Executive George Latimer announced that the Department of Budget forecasts a $16 million increase in the county’s general fund balance for the 2021 fiscal year. The increase will bring the unrestricted fund balance to more than $200 million at the end of 2021—the largest in the county’s history. “We had to make hard financial decisions and we faced dif-

ficult financial times, but we made smart choices with federal dollars that not only saved the County money, but also provided essential services for the public when they needed it the most,” Latimer said. “We supported efforts to combat food insecurity, supported small businesses and remote learning centers for children. And, we did this all, while cutting County property taxes two years in a row.” Prior to the 2021 budget,

2020 also closed with no layoffs, no furloughs, no service cuts and no borrowing for pension costs. “This represents a significant favorable change from the budget as adopted in December 2020,” said county Budget Director Lawrence Soule. The announcement is part of the county’s first quarter financial report providing an annualized forecast for the 12 months ending Dec. 31, 2021. (Submitted)

Westchester County Executive George Latimer announced on May 13 that the Department of Budget is forecasting a $16 million increase in the county’s general fund balance for the 2021 fiscal year.

A New York State judge overseeing the civil trial against a former Immaculate Heart of Mary teacher will force the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York to hand over documents pertaining to a 2002 grand jury investigation about the church’s role in the sexual abuse of minors, court documents reveal. On May 5, state Associate Supreme Court Justice Steven M. Jaeger denied efforts by the Archdiocese—which is listed as a co-defendant alongside Edwin Gaynor, a former school employee who has been accused of sexual abuse—to withhold information relating to the investigation, ruling that those documents could be relevant to the current cases being brought forth against the former teacher and coach. Counsel for the plaintiffs first requested, in September 2020, that all grand jury documents regarding the 2002 investigation be made available during discovery . a gambit opposed by Archdiocesan attorneys in an Oct. 28, 2020, motion which labeled these requests as “overly-broad.”Since November 2019, more than 30 accusers have come forward with claims against Gaynor, alleging that the 85-year-old Ossining resident used his position as a teacher and employee of catholic schools in Westchester County—notably

IHM in Scarsdale and Holy Rosary in Hawthorne—to abuse minors from the late 1950s to mid-1980s. In his ruling, Jaeger pointed to the plaintiffs’ allegations that church officials had knowingly dismissed complaints against Gaynor and continued to employ him, a practice detailed in the testimony from the 2002 investigation. The 2002 grand jury was convened by then-Westchester County District Attorney Jeanine Pirro, a Republican, following bombshell reporting by the Boston Globe that uncovered a pattern of systemic sexual abuse that had been covered up for decades by the Boston Archdiocese. Meeting 15 times and calling 21 witnesses, the Grand Jury released its report on June 18 of that year, finding that the New York Archdiocese had indeed failed to report claims of abuse in Westchester County and proposing legislative recommendations—including abolishing the statute of limitations for sex crimes against minors— that would make it easier for alleged victims to come forward in the future. “The objection to release by the Archdiocese of the documents submitted to the Westchester County 2002 Grand Jury Report is misplaced as it is alleged to deal with Archdiocese’s alleged malfeasance . . . and for the conduct of the same GAYNOR continued on page 9

Board honors DOROT Westchester, Hillels of Westchester The Westchester County Board of Legislators on Monday, May 10 celebrated Jewish History and Heritage Month with a special video ceremony, in conjunction with the Westchester Jewish Council, honoring two organizations for their important community work, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Board Chairman Ben Boy-

kin presented a proclamation to DOROT Westchester, the Westchester chapter of the New York City-based organization. For more than 15 years, DOROT Westchester’s team of social workers and volunteers has served hundreds of older adults in the county with an array of outreach programs to keep them from becoming isolated. During

the COVID pandemic, the organization moved quickly to establish telephone and online outreach, bringing learning, intergenerational and other programs online, and providing tech tutors to help older adults adjust to new ways of staying connected. “This year has been exceptionally challenging for everyone,” said Cippi Harte, DOROT

DOROT Westchester Director Cippi Harte and Westchester County Board of Legislators Chairman Ben Boykin.

Westchester’s director. “Older adults have been at great risk for COVID-19 and have been isolated for more than a year. Our efforts to keep them connected and engaged have been, in my humble opinion, remarkable. On behalf of my community of outstanding social workers, tireless volunteers, generous donors, and the more than 400 older adults we serve in Westchester County, a very big thank you to the Board of Legislators and Westchester

Jewish Council for honoring us during Jewish History and Heritage Month.” The board has declared May 11, 2021 DOROT Day in Westchester County. County Legislator Nancy Barr presented a proclamation honoring Hillels of Westchester, a local, grassroots organization that supports Jewish life for students on college campuses including Manhattanville College, Pace University-Pleasantville,

Latimer gives update on South County Trailway work Following the completion of the restoration of the North County Trailway in 2020, the county began the restoration of the South County Trailway. Together, these connected trailways run the entire length of Westchester. “Outdoor recreation is more important than ever,” County Executive George Latimer said. “In the past year, we’ve seen our parks become extremely popular and we’re proud to be able to provide these spaces to our residents. We are thrilled to be in the final phase of this project. Upon completion—bikers, walkers and joggers will have 36.2 miles of enhanced trailway to explore.” The South County Trailway project covers approximately six miles, stretching from Barney Street in Yonkers to Route 119 in Elmsford. The scope of work includes the restoration of the drainage system, which will keep the trailway dry, and the reconstruction of the asphalt, which will allow for a smoother ride. Both address safety and will decrease the likelihood of accidents. Signs, benches, traffic control gates, railing and plantings

are also being installed along the path. “Whether you’re looking to take a leisurely walk with the family or clocking miles on your bike, the North-South County Trailways are a great option,” said Kathy O’Connor, commissioner of the Department of Parks, Recreation and Conservation. “We look forward to the completion of this project.” This project is the result of multiple departments working together; including the Department of Planning, the Department of Public Works and the Department of Parks, Recreation and Conservation. “Westchester’s parks are our most popular County facilities; and our trailways are our most popular parks,” county Legislator MaryJane Shimsky said. “This section of the South County Trailway has been in need of repair for many years. Now we are nearing the point when the thousands of Westchester residents who enjoy this section of trailway will have a new surface on which to walk, run, cycle and skate.” County Legislator Ruth Walter

added, “The South County Trailway is a wonderful example of creative ways former industrial spaces can be reclaimed for recreational use. It’s been a fabulous asset to the quality of life of the people of Southern Westchester. I’m so excited that the County is undertaking the process of maintenance and repair that will ensure that this great, much-used park, will continue to be a wonderful outdoor resource for all the people of the County.” Construction is expected to be completed by next spring.

Opinion-Editorial

Keeping the lights on in the post Indian Point era By JOHN RAVITZ and RICHARD ELLENBOGEN Sixty years after first opening, the end has come to nuclear power generation at Indian Point. April 30 saw the shutdown of the final operating unit at the Energy Center. The moment is being celebrated as a major victory by long-time opponents, who virtually from the start of its operation campaigned to have it closed. In the end, with Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s support, their fears of the dangers posed by a possible nuclear accident won out. The closing, however, leaves us to deal with serious unanswered questions: Are we ready for a post-Indian Point future? Will we have enough power to supply our densely populated region? From the outset of the Indian Point debate, the Business Council of Westchester has asked these questions. In 2012, we commissioned a study that envisioned serious consequences from shutting down the source of 25% of the New York Metropolitan area’s electric power. Then, three years ago, when Con Edison added to our energy concerns in announcing that due to a lack of pipeline capacity it was no longer going to hookup new natural gas customers in southern Westchester, we formed a task force to analyze the realities of the impending power crisis and promote alternative solutions. Joined by Richard Ellenbogen, an expert on electric power whose own manufacturing company and residence in New Rochelle are nearly energy self-sufficient, we conducted an in-depth, open-minded analysis of the regional energy needs and GAYNOR from page 1

clergy and employees,” Jaeger wrote. “Such documents may be probative of its negligence and its knowledge of Gaynor’s conduct.”Barbara Hart, an attorney at Grant & Eisenhofer P.A., which represents more than 20 of Gaynor’s accusers, believes that the judge’s ruling is a positive sign for her clients and believes that even if the documents do not shed any new light on Gaynor’s alleged behavior, they may be able to establish a pattern of sweeping allegations

Gov. Cuomo’s oft-stated goal of eliminating power from fossil fuels by 2040. Our conclusion is that regardless of how laudable the goal, for myriad reasons it is not attainable in that short timeframe. Over the last three years we have personally met with the leaders of the state Public Service Commission, NYSERDA and the Senate and Assembly Energy and Environmental Conservation committees to present our analyses of the dire situation which lies ahead. No one disagreed with our conclusions. Yet there was no willingness to challenge the mantra that green energy sources can and will be able to replace fossil fuel sources in less than 20 years. Roadblocks to new power sources In the short term, it appears that we are close to replacing the power generated at the 2,000-megawatt Indian Point. The recently opened 1100-megawatt Cricket Valley Thermal Power Plant in Dover, New York, and the 680-megawatt CPV Valley Energy Center in Wawayanda, New York, can produce about 90% of the energy that Indian Point provided using state of the art gas combustion technology. Another gas-fired plant proposed in Newburgh would further help but is facing opposition. In the longer term, however, not-in-my-backyard resistance to

creating any new energy sources, combined with the blind push to abandon all power generation from fossil fuels threatens to create a self-induced energy shortage. This blind faith syndrome compromises the ability to maintain New York’s power grid, meet increasing demand from vehicle and thermal electrification, and withstand increasingly severe weather events. It also defies the weather realities of the Northeast which include long stretches of cold, cloudy days that severely limit the effectiveness of solar and other green technologies that are in fairly wide use in warmer, sunnier areas. Earlier this year, we witnessed the devastating consequences of a mid-winter power grid failure in Texas, costing an estimated $195 billion, making this one of the costliest grid failures in history. And just last summer, California, the leader in adopting renewable energy sources, experienced rolling blackouts resulting from severe weather events combining with fewer available energy resources due to the permanent shutdown of fossil-fuel power plants. These are cautionary tales. Our region is not immune to extreme weather. Last August, Tropical Storm Isaias left millions of people in New York and New Jersey without power for a week or more, and who will for-

against clergy members and laypeople employed by the Archdiocese under the rug. Between 1959 and 1986, Gaynor was employed by at least three parishes in Westchester and ran youth sports leagues for their catholic schools, even after complaints about his behavior had reportedly been made to senior church officials. “We’re glad that the court is going to hold the Archdiocese to its obligations,” Hart said. “There’s a consistent pattern of moving pedophiles around and we are trying to establish neg-

ligence in that they knew when they moved someone, they would often come out and do it again.” On May 12, attorneys representing the Archdiocese filed an appeal of Jaeger’s ruling, something Hart maintains is in lockstep with their tactics thus far. “It’s consistent with their avoidance of discovery,” she said. “They’re unresponsive, trying to run out the clock and then they’re going to argue the passage of time, failing memories and not having evidence.” CONTACT: sports@hometwn.com

get Sandy? Going green can require more electricity Ironically, renewable energy initiatives will, in fact, impose extra demands on an over-burdened system. For example, Gov. Cuomo’s recent Make Ready Initiative directs the state’s utilities to build a grid infrastructure needed to install publicly available chargers for electric vehicles. In New York City, a proposed law would ban using power generated from fracked natural gas in new buildings and major renovations. The proposal would require new construction to go all-electric, adding more demand on our precarious power grid. Where will all this electricity come from? If we had a boon of renewable energy production on the horizon, recent proposals like bans on fracked gas would not be so disconcerting. However, renewable energy production facilities are victims of not-in-my-backyard resistance. The Champlain Hudson Power Express transmission line that is expected to begin construction this year endured seven

years of delays and unnecessary hurdles in its effort deliver 1,000 megawatts of clean Canadian hydropower to our region starting in 2025. This clean-energy source could and should be utilized more. Other renewable projects have faced even greater opposition. A majority of the New York counties bordering the Great Lakes have passed resolutions opposing wind turbines on the lakes. On Long Island, residents near the South Fork Wind Farm have for the last five years vigorously opposed both the turbines and the transmission line to deliver their output to the power grid. Even if it is ever built, the South Fork project will offset less than 0.008 of the state’s current fossil fuel generation. Long-term goals versus realities Our state’s leaders must ensure the reliability of New York’s power grid by slowing the deactivation of fossil-fuel plants; enacting legislation that will overcome unreasonable “notin-my-backyard” opposition to renewable projects like solar ar-

rays and wind turbines; and dismissing impractical proposals like a ban on using fracked gas in New York City. The Business Council of Westchester supports the longterm goal of working toward a carbon-free energy grid as an element in reducing the effects of Climate Change. However, New York cannot afford to mindlessly shutter fossil fuel powered generating plants in a gamble that solar and wind will make up the difference any time soon. Recognizing the realities of the overall electric generation and supply situation is essential to assuring we have reliable and ample power while we work toward a fossil-free future. John Ravitz is executive vice president and Chief Operating Officer of the Business Council of Westchester. Richard Ellenbogen is president of Allied Converters in New Rochelle, an energy independent manufacturer, and a leading expert on green energy sources and technologies. The views expressed are theirs.

Pressure points 5 things to know about blood pressure before it’s a problem Blood pressure is more than just numbers your doctor writes on a chart. To explain it, Dr. Shawna Nesbitt, medical director of the Hypertension Clinic at Parkland Hospital in Dallas, talks about plumbing. Think of blood vessels as pipes in a house, she said. Those pipes feed blood to the whole body. If the pressure in them gets too high, it can damage the pipes or whatever they connect to — such as the heart, brain or kidneys. “Controlling it doesn’t just matter to one of those organs. It matters to all of those organs,” said Nesbitt. In other words — high blood pressure, or hypertension, is a big deal. Here are five things you might not know about it. 1. Start thinking about it early on. Blood pressure tends to increase as people age. But that doesn’t mean you can ignore it until it’s a problem, said Dr. Raymond Townsend, director of the hypertension program at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. It rarely has symptoms. “So unless you check it, you don’t know,” he said. It could be wreaking invisible havoc, for example, by aging the circulatory system, Townsend said. “You may be 60 years old, but if you’ve had untreated high blood pressure for a while, your blood vessels may be 80.” High blood pressure affects 121.5 million U.S. adults, American Heart Association statistics show. It is defined as a systolic pressure (the top number) of 130 or higher or a diastolic pressure (the bottom number) of 80 or higher that

stays high over time. People who are Black; have a family history of high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke or kidney disease; and women who had blood pressure issues during pregnancy should pay extra attention, Nesbitt said. The good news, Townsend said, is if you spot high blood pressure before it does damage, “you’re in the primary prevention game. And that’s where you want to be.” 2. Managing it protects your brain. If high blood pressure damages your brain’s blood vessels, bad things can happen. A stroke is one. But the risk goes beyond strokes. Neurologists are finding that dementia is a vascular disease, which means high blood pressure can cause a little damage in lots of small areas of the brain, Nesbitt said. “And because you’ve got a little damage in a lot of places, then you have the sum total of all of those areas that just don’t function so well anymore.” Townsend said studies suggest people whose blood pressure is better controlled tend to score better on tests of cognitive function. Lowering blood pressure isn’t a cure-all for brain health, he said, but prevention is key. “The goal is to preserve it at its high level when you’re 30 or 40 years of age.” 3. Black Americans are at higher risk. Hypertension is far more common in Black adults in the U.S. than in adults of other races and ethnicities. Yet it’s less of a problem for people of African heritage living in other countries. “Which

makes you question why it is so much more prevalent in America than in other places,” Nesbitt said. Systemic problems, such as the fact that Black Americans are more likely to lack access to healthy food or safe places to exercise, are significant factors. So is the stress of dealing with racism. “What we are looking at is a manifestation of the living conditions of Black Americans,” she said. “And because we have rampant examples of differences in how we live, and how we experience the world every day, those things have a toll on our physical health. And blood pressure’s one of the first things that we see that makes that difference very evident.” 4. Watch potassium, too. Sodium has long been sin-

gled out for its relationship to high blood pressure. But many experts these days emphasize the importance of the sodium-potassium balance, Townsend said. Potassium helps regulate blood flow. And if you’re eating a lot of processed foods, you’re probably getting too much of the former and not enough of the latter, Nesbitt said. The DASH or Mediterranean diets offer a healthy balance of nutrients. Potassium-rich foods include bananas, sweet potatoes and low-fat

dairy products. 5. Little changes, big difference. For decades, Townsend said, researchers have known the most important predictor of blood pressure when you’re older is excess weight. But you don’t have to go to extremes to help blood pressure, he said. “You may be 40 or 50 pounds overweight, but if you lose 10 or 15, not only are you headed it in the right

direction, often you begin to see some benefit.” There isn’t a quick fix for high blood pressure, Nesbitt said. But you don’t have to fix everything at once. “It is important that we keep focus on that we’re not doing this for vanity’s sake,” she said. “We’re doing this for your healthy lifestyle and longevity. This is for the long run.”

Use your head Is it OK to exercise when you’re sick? If you are sick and plan to exercise this cold and flu season, experts say to use your head — and recognize the body’s warnings signs. It’s especially important to take precautions this winter during the COVID-19 pandemic. Consulting a doctor always is a good idea if there are any questions about symptoms or whether to quarantine or isolate. But in general, physical activity isn’t necessarily a no-no for a milder illness like a simple head cold. “The typical rule of thumb that a lot of practitioners and exercise physiologists like to stick to is that if symptoms are above the neck, it’s OK to get out there and do some exercise,” said Amanda Paluch, assistant professor at the School of Public Health and Health Sciences at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Think a runny nose or light headache, though it might be wise to ease up from the typical routine, she said. “Maybe just going out for a walk instead of a vigorous run,” Paluch said. “You can still see benefits even with this lower intensity. Just getting out there could actually help you feel a little better.” Symptoms below the neck like chest congestion or upset stomach typically are signs to avoid exercise. Never exercise when you have a fever, regardless of whether it’s related to the flu, COVID-19 or another virus, said Dr. Felipe Lobelo, an associate professor at Emory University’s Rollins School of Public Health. Recently updated guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend that people diag-

nosed with COVID-19, with or without symptoms, generally should isolate for at least 10 days after the onset of symptoms or after a positive test. So, that means no exercising during that time, too, Lobelo said. Even after that 10-day period, he said people should wait another week before resuming exercise. And the return to exercise after recovering should be gradual. “You probably will feel deconditioned because of some bed rest and much lower levels of activity, on top of any lingering effects of COVID if you had a cough, fatigue or shortness of breath.” It’s important, Lobelo added, to notify your doctor if symptoms don’t improve gradually with exercise or if new symptoms like chest pain, shortness of breath or extreme fatigue develop during physical activity. Finding safe and responsible ways to stay active remains important during the pandemic, whether at home or while outside with social distancing. According to the CDC, physical activity reduces blood pressure and anxiety, improves mood and energy level, and helps people get better sleep. However, it’s best to avoid indoor activities at gyms because of the increased potential for coronavirus transmission, Lobelo said. If you do go, wear a face covering, maintain social distancing and wipe down equipment regularly. “You really want to focus on outdoor activities as much as possible,” Lobelo said. He also encouraged people to take a mask with them outdoors to wear for instances like pass-

ing someone on a trail. Paluch offered tips for those not accustomed to exercising in the cold, including wearing layers of clothing that can be shed if needed. Wearing a mask while exercising has the added benefit of helping to keep your face warm. A fitness tracker also could be a creative way to stay active and engage virtually with family and friends, said Paluch, who researches the benefits of wearable sensors. For instance, family members might race to see who can accumulate the most steps during a week and compare results online. “These kinds of things can keep people connected and maybe provide some motivation,” Paluch said. “You can have that social support without direct contact.”

NOTICE IF HEREBY GIVEN that the Zoning Board of Appeals, of the Village of Tuckahoe, will hold a public hearing on Wednesday June 9, 2021 at 7:30 PM at the Village Hall, 65 Main Street, Tuckahoe, New York to consider the application of Jonathan Giahn regarding his property located at 377 Marbledale Road, Tuckahoe, NY also known as SECTION 46, BLOCK 1, LOTS 10, 11, 12, 13 & 15. The application appeals the decision of the Building Inspector, who denied the issuance of a building permit to reconfigure the five existing tax lots into three buildable lots, or, in the alternative, seeks area variances as follows: Interpretations: An interpretation that the 10,000-sf minimum lot size in the Village Zoning Code Section 4-2.3 does not apply to this application as there is no “creation” of a new lot. An interpretation as to the calculation of “height” for a one-family dwelling under the definition in Village Zoning Code Section 3-1.1.17. Area Variances: For all three proposed lots: A variance from Zoning Code Section 4-2.2 to permit a one-family dwelling with a height of 51 ft where 35 ft is the maximum permitted; and A variance from Zoning Code Section 4-2.2 to permit a one-family dwelling of 4 ½ stories where a maximum of 2 ½ stories is permitted; and A variance from Zoning Code Section 5-1.3 to permit a retaining wall of 13.75 ft in the front, side and rear yards of each lot where a maximum of 4 ft (front), 5 ft (side) and 6 ft (rear) is permitted; and For the proposed middle lot only: A variance from Zoning Code Section 4-2-4.2 to permit a side yard setback of 10 ft where 20 ft is required; and A variance from Zoning Code Section 4-2.3 to permit a lot of 7,417 sq. ft. where 10,000 sq. ft is required; and A variance from Zoning Code Section 4-2.3 to permit a lot width of 50.9 ft where 80 ft is required; and A variance from Zoning Code Section 4-2.4.1 to permit a front yard setback of 28 ft. 5 in where 35 feet is required. For the proposed southern lot only: A variance from Zoning Code Section 4-2-4.2 to permit side yard setbacks of 9 ft and 11 ft where 20 ft is required; A variance from Zoning Code Section 4-2.3 to permit a lot of 6,977 sq. ft. where 10,000 sq. ft is required; and A variance form Zoning Code Section 4-2.3 to permit a lot width of 50.7 ft where 80 ft is required; and A variance from Zoning Code Section 4-2.4.1 to permit a front yard setback of 25 ft. 11 in where 35 feet is required. Due to public health and safety concerns related to COVID-19, and pursuant to the Governor’s Executive Orders, the Public Hearing will be held using remote participation. The public will have the opportunity to see and hear the meeting live and provide comments. Please check the Village’s website for updates and for instructions on participating in the remote meeting https://www.tuckahoe.com/node/111/agenda/2021 . All interested parties are urged to attend this public hearing at which time they will be afforded the opportunity to express their views and or submit written communications to the Village Clerk or The Zoning Board of Appeals, 65 Main Street, Tuckahoe, NY 10707.

A wrinkle in time LIVE MIKE Mike Smith

Make no mistake, I’ve often considered myself an “old school” sports fan. Even from a young age, I was always fascinated by the players of yesteryear; voraciously devouring accounts of bygone eras, whether it be stories of the Murderer’s Row Yankees or the Lombardi-led Packers. You could say that I was almost nostalgic for times I’d never experienced in the first place. But with all that being said, I have to admit it, I’m not so stuck in the past that I can’t appreciate when things change for the better. Over the last few years, we’ve seen several professional sports leagues implement new rules and formats to boost enthusiasm for the product. And while I may not be on board with every change—looking at you, early morning NFL games from En-

gland—there are a few that I’ve fully embraced. For instance, even if baseball “purists” might decry the MLB’s new extra-inning “runner on second” rule as a cheap gimmick to get games over quicker, I’m 100% on board with the move. I don’t mind a good extra-inning ballgame. Heck, I view staying up for the entirety of Game 3 of the 2018 World Series—a seven-hour affair—as a badge of honor. But the fact of the matter is that while an eight-hour regular season game might end up being an interesting historical footnote, one thing it is not going to be is something I, or anyone else, will be watching until its completion. So putting the runner on second to start extra innings? I’m all for it. It adds a little bit of drama—and maybe even a bunt— to what would otherwise end up being a midseason snoozer that the majority of fans will sleep through. And the NBA play-in tournament? Another home run, at least in theory. Sure, some players like

LeBron James might decry the move for selfish reasons—despite the fact that LeBron was an early proponent of the system—but I think it’s adding a little bit of juice to the postseason. I mean, just look; LeBron’s Lakers are going to be squaring off against Steph Curry’s Warriors on Wednesday night. That’s what I call “Must-See-TV.” Sports leagues aren’t always going to get it right, but I at least appreciate the fact that they aren’t just taking their fanbases for granted. They’re tinkering with the formula to make their sports more watchable, and increase revenue in the process. We might not always like the direction in which we are headed, but sometimes these suits get it right. That is until the extra-inning rule costs my Sox a game, then its time to stick it right in the dustbin of history.

Game Notes: • Mamaroneck rallied for 5 runs in the 7th inning • The Tigers topped Rye in back-to-back games • Ryan McIntyre struck out 3 batters in the 7th inning

By MIKE SMITH Sports Editor Two days after edging Rye on a walk-off home run in extra innings, Mamaroneck managed to best the Garnets in dramatic fashion once again on May 12, rallying for five runs in the top of the seventh inning to record a comefrom-behind win. For the Tigers, the 7-5 victory accounted for the team’s eighth win of the year; for Rye, two good showings against the Class AA power this week solidified the Garnets’ position as one of the top contenders in the Alex Boswell ties the game with a seventh inning base hit against Rye on Class A playoff picture.
