The Greater Pittston Prep American Legion Baseball team lost Wyoming Valley League games to Back Mountain on consecutive days.
Back Mountain won at home, 8-5, Tuesday, then at Greater Pittston, 11-9, Wednesday.
Greater Pittston took a 4-6 record into a doubleheader Saturday at winless Mountain Post to conclude the regular season.
Back Mountain finished first at 11-1. Swoyersville finished second at 7-5.
The league playoffs are scheduled to begin Monday with Greater Pittston playing Swoyersville at 3 p.m. at Roosevelt Field in the first round.
Manager P.J. Pisano said fielding miscues were costly in both games. They turned a one-run game into the 8-5 final margin in the bottom of the sixth inning of the first meeting and caused a 5-1 lead to get away in the second game.
Ryan Tonte, Max Mihalka and Gavin Gisolfi had the key hits in the first game then Dom Marranca and Alex Rosencrance in the second game.
Pisano praised Gianni Bartarillo’s defensive play throughout the season.
