2011 Atlantic League All-Star Game Highlights


Michael Hernandez went 2 for 4 with a triple and a home run, and Val Majewski and Jeff Nettles both homered in the Freedom Division's 7-0 victory over the Liberty Division in the 2011 Atlantic League All-Star Game.


Five Riversharks made the trip to York, and all five saw some action. Outfielder Noah Hall started the game in left field but went 0 for 3. Catcher Toby Hall came into the game in the bottom of the 6th, and in the 8th laced a single to left center.


Second baseman Lloyd Turner subbed for Brandon Pinckney in the bottom of the fifth, and walked in his only plate appearance.


Sharks reliever John Bale struck out the side in the bottom of the 6th. Jay Marshall ran into a little trouble in the bottom of the 7th, giving up a two hits, including Hernandez's triple, that eventually led to 2 runs for the Freedom Division.




Before the game, Long Island Ducks outfielder Matt Esquivel won the AAA Home Run Derby.
