Will elaborate Wednesday, but these boys do not panic.....they are finding a way to win.....this is the true + for this talented bunch.
Thur:
FHS-5 Baylor-1 - Tyler Powell pitched a great game 6 2/3 5/K, 0/BB, 1ER. Eldridge 2-4 3B, 2rbi, Waldrop 2B. GCM, you will particlarly love this one - the last run was a Pharr special = 1st and 3rd delayed dbl steal....beautiful.
Fri:
FHS-8 Sc Hill-7 Close and hard fought...this is the 1st example of the "find a way" I mentioned.Ryno Steben started and got into a little trouble.....enter Michael Joseph (yes Robbie's younger bro)....got called up to the varsity Wed. night....got the win 4 2/3 6/K, 3/BB, 2/R, 0/ER. Drew Reagan got the save.
Eldridge 2-4 (2 2B/RBI), Sherrad 2-5 (2RBI), Waldrop 2-4 (HR - lazer to LC), Reagan 3-4. We made some errors to hurt ourselves here...and not help a Soph pitcher....but they found a way to win....head first bunt singles, etc
Sat:
FHS-4 Father Ryan-2 These guys played well but Catapano was to much this day 7 inning complete game, 9/K, 2/BB 4/H, 2/R, 1/ER. Did it with the long ball in this one. Reagan 1-2 (2 run HR), Sherrad (solo HR), Brown 1-2 (2B).
FHS-13 Riverdale-1 This was not Riverdale at their best...will see them again this weekend and fully expect a good game.
Sherrad pitched a 5 inning completion 1/K, 0/BB, scattered 5 hits. Eldridge 3-4 (2B, 3B, 4/RBI), Waldrop (2B), Dean (2B), King (2B).
FHS-5 McCallie-4 10 innings Phillip Heyming started rough but finished strong 7 innings, 6/K, 0/BB, 6/H, 4/R, 4/ER. Drew Reagan got the win in relief....we had some good hits, but McCallie played well......we wioll see them 2 more times this yaer and will likely get all we can handle both times. We'll talk more Wed.
