Saturday, August 8 2009 Regional - Game 3 WEST DEPTFORD, N.J. – Barrington, R.I. scored in six of its eight at-bats, but had to rally from a six-run deficit and survive a four-run seventh-inning rally to down West Deptford, N.J., 23-16, in eight innings Senior Little League Baseball Eastern Regional action Saturday night. The marathon took 3 hours, 57 minutes, the longest game in the 19-year regional history at West Deptford. It was also the highest scoring game in the 19 years of regional play at West Deptford.

Lost in the effort was West Deptford’s Ryan Kelly hitting for the cycle in four consecutive at-bats.
