The Barrington 12-year-olds All Star team powered past Tiverton, 10-0, in an elimination bracket game on Tuesday night, July 5, in Tiverton.

Jacob Koble started the game on the mound for Barrington and pitched well through three and two-thirds. He struck out nine batters and allowed only one hit. Andy Fletcher was solid in relief, closing it out with three strikeouts. 

Both teams struggled to score runs in the first three inning. But in the fourth, Barrington exploded for five runs, as Josh LeBlanc led off the inning with a double, and Andy Fletcher and Thomas Rocha followed with singles. Bryan Ivatts drew a walk and then Sam Faulkner blasted a three-run homer over the left-centerfield fence. 

Barrington continued to score in the fifth inning — Joey Medeiros doubled and Jack Abadi cracked a single. Then Rocha slammed a three-run homer. Gavin Kraemer doubled and Sam Faulkner then hit his second home run of the game. 

The 10 runs signaled an early end to the game, as the mercy rule went into effect. 

The win kept Barrington alive in the double-elimination District II tournament. Barrington opened the tournament with a win over Bristol, then lost to Middletown and dropped into the elimination bracket. Tiverton opened the tournament with a loss to Pineview and was eliminated with the loss to Barrington.

Barrington is slated to play against Newport on Thursday, July 7, in Barrington at 5:45 p.m.
