Bishop Montgomery High’s baseball team was lucky Crespi’s Jeff Suppan had only average “stuff” Wednesday.

Otherwise, the Knights might not have gotten any hits.

As it was, the right-hander held Bishop Montgomery to four hits and pitched the visiting Celts to a 10-2 victory in a Mission League opener.

Suppan and catcher Casey Snow provided the offense as well. Suppan was three for four with a run batted in and Snow was two for three with a double, a home run, three RBIs and four runs.

But the battery’s primary job was shutting down the Knights, which it did. The consensus of Suppan, Snow and Coach Scott Muckey, however, was that Suppan was not as dominant as he could have been.

“He really had to pitch well today because he didn’t have his best fastball,” Muckey said.
