The Oneonta Outlaws rallied from an early deficit to defeat the Saugerties Stallions 7-2 at Damaschke Field on Monday.
After falling behind 2-0 in the top of the first, Oneonta responded immediately to make it 2-2 in the bottom of the first. The Outlaws would then take the lead with a two-run third inning and add insurance with a three-run fourth.
Devin Boone led Oneonta's offense, going 3-for-3 with a double and an RBI. Jelani Hamer added a triple while Ryan Weiss drove in two runs.
On the mound, Matthew DuBois earned the win, pitching seven strong innings, striking out four and allowing just four hits and one walk.
After Saugerties took an early lead with a pair of RBI singles, Oneonta tied things up thanks to a steal of home by Boone and a run on a fielder's choice by Dylan Broderick.
Weiss then gave the Outlaws the lead in the third with a two-run single. Several Saugerties miscues led to three runs for Oneonta in the fourth which proved enough to secure a comfortable victory.
The Outlaws (9-10-1) will be at Elmira on Tuesday.
