The Lady Railroaders hosted Fremont at Denny Feagler field tonight and squeezed out a 4-3 win in 8 innings. Coach Bishop Comments:
Macy Sturges started pitching and gave up 2 hits and walked 2 in the first inning.Second inning she gave up a lead off double and a error in the outfield allowed a run to cross in the second. SAturges started to settle down and gave them no more and finished 7 innings allowing 3 runs all earned walked 2 and struck out 8. Brit Yarian pitched the 8th and got the win.We scored 2 runs in the second and 1 run in the fifth to tie the game. In the 8th K DePew lead off with a single and stolen base followed by Annessa Smith doing the same thing. Ashley Morris bunted for a single with runners on 2nd and 3rd. Emily Somers came to the plate with no outs and bases loaded. She worked the count to full and induced a walk and DePew walked home and we won 4-3 in 8 innings. We left 14 runners on base and that has to change, we were lucky to win tonight, we stayed close, and as they say a win is a win and sometimes it's better to be lucky than good. Lets move on to tougher challenges that lie ahead starting at C City on Wed there at 4:30.
The Baseball team hosted Angola tonight. Kylan LaMotte was the starting pitcher. He struggled early and we got down 3-1. Then Garrett Moon came to the plate and "Jacked" another shot to Right Field that put the Railroaders ahead 4-3. However, we couldn't hold the lead and eventually lost 5-4. A bright spot was Andrew Robinson who came in to pitch the final 3 innings and did a great job. He had good stuff and threw strikes. We had a couple chances to get some runs back but couldn't get the "Ducks off the pond". SO, we try again tomorrow.
The Baseball team travels to Northwood tomorrow for a 5pm start.
