Revere baseball team has high hopes after 2022 effort By Greg Phipps R ight off the bat, the Revere High School baseball team had to contend with last year’s Greater Boston League (GBL) champion Lynn Classical Rams in its season-opener on Monday in Lynn. The result was not what the Patriots hoped for, as the Rams prevailed by a 7-3 score. “The sun will come up tomorrow and we will get back to work,” commented Patriots Head Coach Mike Manning after the game. Senior Domenic Boudreau was the offensive leader for Revere with two hits, a stolen base and a run scored. Junior pitcher Kyle Cummings got the season-opening start. He contributed a base hit and an RBI to the Revere cause. The 0-1 Patriots were scheduled to play at Lynn English in another league game on Wednesday and resume action on Monday, April 10, in their fi rst home game against Medford (scheduled 4:15 p.m. start). Monday’s opener at Classical had a similar storyline to last season when the Patriots dropped a 3-1 decision to the Rams on opening day. Revere, which finished second in the GBL last year with an 11-3 league mark, won the second meeting between the two squads, but it wouldn’t be enough to overtake 12-2 Classical for the league title. Overall, the Patriots fi nished with a 13-8 record and made the Div. 1 playoff s in 2022. They are hoping to either repeat or exceed that performance this spring. Manning and his team finished strong last year by winning six of their last seven regular-season games. During that stretch, Revere outscored the opposition by 29 runs. The 2022 campaign ended on a low note in the playoff tournament when the Patriots’ off ense was silenced in an 8-1 defeat at Beverly in the Div. 1 preliminary round. Revere’s Sal DeAngelis ended the season with a solid three-for-three offensive eff ort in that contest.
