NAPLES, Italy - Right fielder Chris McKissick stroked a two-strike, two-out walk-off three-run homer over the center field fence Saturday to lift the Sigonella Jaguars to a 5-4 Game 2 victory over the Naples Widlcats and a split of the teams’ doubleheader.

The victory in the final game of the regular season allowed Sigonella to improve to 8-3 overall, good for second place in the South Region standings. Naples, which won Game 1 15-3, claimed the regional title with a 9-2 mark. Both losses, both to Sigonella, came by one run each.

In Game 1, Zach Zimmerman’s bat and glove and Matt Gardner’s arm carried Naples. Zimmerman went 2-f0r 2 at the plate, and Gardner struck out five in his route-going four-inning outing.
