Cal/Jenison Game 3 Recap
The Scots and the Jenison Wildcats split two games earlier this week and today the Scots were at home and sent Keegan Mulvey to the bump to win the rubber match. Mulvey in his previous two starts threw gems with a solid ERA of 2.25, however he couldn't pick up the win in either both times drawing no decisions. Today just had a feeling that it would be the first W for him and that feeling was on point. After trading zeros in the first frame, the Scots got one run on the board in the 2nd off an RBI groundout by catcher Danny Paas. The Scots lead would expand later on 2RBI hits by Tremt Foreman and Logan Hudson. The Scots would continue to get all over the starting pitcher for the Wildcats getting hit after hit, and even got some help on errors throughout the rest of this game. In the bottom of the 5th up 5-1, Danny Paas put yet another a ball in play a quality fly ball to right and the right fielder dropped it and another run scored. Keegan Mulvey chipped in a pair of RBIs and Michael Andrusiak broke his slump with a single that put it at 9-1. The Scots only needed the first three innings of offense though because starter Keegan Mulvey was as Eric Tuori put it "on fire." He pitched 5 innings allowed one run struck out 6 and only walked 1. There were multiple instances where Mulvey ran into slight amounts of trouble but his second basemen was always there. Caleb Sleeman turned three double plays in this game including one with runners on the corners and one out that saved an early run from scoring in the 2nd to keep the game scoreless. Trenton Foreman came in to pitch the final 2 innings to preserve Mulveys first win of the year and it gives the Scots a to game win streak and improves their conference record to 2-3 with a 3-5 overall record. It was definately their best game of the year with only 3 walks and 1 error. The Scots will take on the Forest Hills Central Rangers tuesday for a doubleheader at home in pursuit to even their season record.
