Tonight was a beautiful night for baseball and softball, in more ways than one. The weather was great and the results matched.
The Boys Baseball Team defeated South Adams by the final score 13-4. We had a great night offensively. We had 13 runs on 14 hits. We took over the game right away putting up 3 runs in the first inning. We slowly built the lead with Andrew Robinson on the mound. Andrew struggled with control in the 4th inning giving up 4 runs on only one hit. At that point it was 7-4. But, we weren't done offensively. Andrew Robinson had a great night on the mound (getting the win) and at the plate. He went 2-3, James Weber was 2-3, Brandon Porter 3-4 with a double, Andrew Johnson 2-4 with a double, Noah Follett 2-3 with a double, Garrett Moon 2-4 with a double. We had 4 doubles for the night. Our top of the order really hit the ball well tonight.
The Lady Railroader Softball team got another win tonight against a good ACAC opponent. Here are the comments from the Coach:
"We got behind 1-0 in the 3rd We went ahead for good with 2 runs in the 4th on Annessa Smith's single and Emily Somers hit-by-pitch. That was followed by Rachel Staffords single. A groundout by Sam Yoder produced a run. We scored 2 more in the 6th with Stafford getting her 2nd hit. She advanced on a pass ball and scored on an error on Yoder's ground ball . Yoder later scored our 4th run when Amber Poling hit a soft ground ball to 1b. Stafford had 2 hits as did Katie DePew who had 3 seeing eye dog hits. Annessa Smith had one hit. We were flat after last night and will have to really step it up for Saturday's games. A win is a win and we will take it. Our defense was tested and played well with Brit Yarian going the distance and pitching a good game giving up 4 hits, striking out 4, walking none, and retiring the last 12 batters in a row.
The Annual Garrett Invitational Softball Tournament is tomorrow. Garrett and Bishop Dwenger will start the day at 10am. The second game will see Manchester take on Elkhart Memorial. The consolation game is at 2pm. THe Championship game is at 4pm. You can use your Big Train ticket to get into the game. Come out to support the 2012 Softball team.
