Two batters later, Raineri crossed home plate after Ryan Jacobs delivered the game-winning single to send Boyertown past Upper Perkiomen, 2-1, in 10 innings. Pat Hohlfeld got the win on the mound, where he pitched the final 3-2/3 innings, allowing just one hit and striking out three. Jacobs finished 2-for-5 with a run scored while Quinn Mason was 2-for-3.
