BRIGHTON >> As part of another offensive clinic that saw the hits pile up, the English High baseball team manufactured enough to outlast resilient Latin Academy on Saturday morning, 6-4, in the Boston City League championship at Boston College’s Harrington Athletics Village.

Three players — Jaurel Melo (3-for-4, double), starting pitcher Luis Mejia (3-for-4, RBI, run) and Ismael Villar (3-for-4, RBI) — earned three hits. Three of the Eagles’ runs came in the third inning to take a lead they never surrendered, holding off the Dragons’ rally in the fifth inning to lock down the BCL championship three-peat.

“The boys knew what the season was about,” said English head coach Christian Ortiz. “We have some returning seniors who have been a part of the first two. They did a great job of molding and creating a culture for the new guys to come in here and set this as a goal, and accomplish it.”

Mejia won Most Outstanding Player, driving in the first Eagles’ run while dominating in stretches on the mound (4.2 innings, five hits, three walks, four runs, two earned runs, three strikeouts). That included six straight batters he set down in the third and fourth innings.

It was the first BCL championship for the junior.

“(I’m) happy to be a part of this team,” Mejia said through Ortiz, translating for him. “(I) know (I) came to a winning-culture team, and (I) feel really proud of (my) teammates. (I) did my best to help the team win.”

Latin Academy seemed to have all the momentum early, even with the Eagles immediately contributing to their 16 hits.

Armanis Romero (2-for-5, double, run) singled and stole second base in the first inning, but was thrown out at home by right fielder Marco Sullivan. Melo reached third after hitting a double in the third inning, but was thrown out by catcher Nathan Bonilla trying to score on a wild pitch. Those plays sandwiched around Bonilla’s RBI triple in the second, leaving the Eagles down 1-0 with two outs in the third.

But after senior Many De Jesus (two runs) reached on an error to put two runners on, English took off. Mejia ripped an RBI single to tie it at 1-1, which he and De Jesus advanced an extra base on from another error.

“(My) goal at the plate was to tie the game up,” Mejia said. “Being on the bases, (I) knew (I) would be a threat. … It was just going to help (me) score for (my) teammates behind (me).”

Two pitches later, Matthew Guerrero (2-for-3) singled to plate Mejia and De Jesus and soon force out starter Jack Shapiro (2 2/3 innings, eight hits, three unearned runs). Reliever Nuri Gutman pitched well to strike out the side in the fourth inning, but Romero turned a double in the left-center gap into another run off a bobble by the defense.

Once Villar singled in De Jesus in the fifth inning, English had a 5-1 lead.

“We’re an aggressive base-running team,” Ortiz said. “The boys have been swinging a hot bat for the past two weeks now. … They did a good job of coming out here and getting on base, they knew we had to get on base and we knew we had to be aggressive on the bases — whether we get thrown out or not.”

Latin Academy stormed back, though, using a lead-off error to spark a two-run rally to force Mejia out with two outs and the bases loaded in the fifth. De Jesus (2 1/3 innings, one hit, two walks, two strikeouts) walked Calum Burns to cut the deficit to 5-4, but fanned the next batter to get out of the jam.

Gutman (3-for-3, two steals) singled and took second for the potential tying run in the sixth, but Melo made a game-saving play at third base on a line drive from Junior Carderon — jumping up to rob a hit that likely would’ve plated Gutman.

“It saved the run,” Ortiz said. “Phenomenal athlete, phenomenal kid. And I’m glad it worked out in our favor.”

Yuniesky Brea’s RBI single extended the lead back to 6-4 in the seventh, and De Jesus slammed the door from there.
