St. Martin’s Episcopal Saints defeated Archbishop Hannan’s Hawks, 13-1, Sunday behind Jacob Martinez, who fired a two-hitter in the LHSAA bi-district round of the Class 1A baseball playoffs at Mike Miley Playground in Metairie. Martinez (6-1) recorded six strikeouts with two walks.

The game was originally scheduled on Saturday but was called in the top of the third inning due to inclement weather with St. Martin’s holding a 7-0 lead. The teams resumed the game on Sunday with Hannan batting.

St. Martin’s Episcopal, the No. 4 seed, pounded out 13 hits. Hannan (5-20), the No. 29 seed, scored its lone run in the top of the fifth on Sunday. Chad Boihem reached on an error. Andrew Arceneaux came through with a single, the Hawks’ first hit off of Martinez, putting runners at first and second. Nathan Huerstel came through with a single down the third base line to score Boihem. Hannan starter Joey LaRocca (1-1) went two innings allowing seven runs on nine hits. Kyle Nunez relieved LaRocca going the final two and two-third innings.

He gave up six runs (two earned) on four hits. He struck out three and hit a batter.
