Cal/EGR Summary (Game3)
Today the Scots boarded the buses for the final conference game of the head, to pay their visit to the East Grand Rapids Pioneers. As they warmed up they realized that the field wasn't the amazing field they expected as the outfield had some rugged terrain, however other than a tumble by yours truly in infield/outfield there was no effect. The Scots were sending continual star Keegan Mulvey to the bump expecting a solid performance. Mulvey did his part of the deal getting the balls to the defense to field but the second half of the deal was not completed. The Scots fumbled and threw the ball all over committing 11 errors today, in the 14-9 win, the boys gave up only one earned run the entire way. Mulvey went five and earned himself yet another W but this one will be attributed to the bats. The Scots scored 14 runs on 15 hits including an astonishing 4 triples. Keegan Mulvey, Ben Hamp and Caleb Sleeman contributed these for the Scots. Caleb Sleeman by far the best statistical hitter of the day went 3/5 with two triples and a double. Base running errors were also present as in the 5th the Scots had a runner on third and Adams hit a beautiful sac fly to the outfield, but for the 6th time this season the Scots didn't complete a sacrifice successfully. The Scots had to overcome these sloppy mistakes but with timely hitting they held on to defeat the struggling Pioneers. The highlight of the game would be the 4th inning when the Scots put up a 7 spot and batted around to the 12th batter, including back to back triples by Mulvey and Sleeman. The Scots play a Doubleheader tomorrow against Covenant Christian trying to take the win streak to 6. Come out to the varsity field and support the squad..comment below I wanna know where all my readers are from in their respective countries?
