Scrappers 16 Riverdogs 7

It was a late night for both teams with a 7:30pm start on a Friday night. The Riverdogs fought hard and we're working on getting through that 4th inning...it seems to get us each time.

Tonight we played with only 9 kids. Our outfielders had a  lot of ground to cover since we played 3 and not 5. Gavin played first base for the first time ever. Brock and Nathaniel swapped out second base and pitcher. Griffin fought hard behind the plate for most of the innings with Will taking two of them. Brayden, Alex, Griffin and Will all chipped in with good defense in the outfield getting that ball in and covering a lot of space!The Riverdogs played hard after a tough loss to the Lookouts at the last game and down 3 players.

Here's how we did defensively...

1st inning:
Ben (shortstop) to Gavin (first) for out #1
Hayden had an unassisted play at third for an out

2nd inning:
Brock (second) to Ben (shortstop) at second for out #1
Nathaniel (pitcher) to Ben (shortstop) at second for an out

3rd inning:
A great 1-2-3 inning for this young team!!!
Brock (pitcher) to Gavin (first) for out #1
Hayden (third) to Gavin (first) for out #2
Ben (shortstop) to Gavin (first) for out #3

4th inning:
Ben caught 2 fly balls at shortstop for two outs

5th inning:
Ben (shortstop) to Hayden (third) for out #1
Brock (pitcher) to Hayden (third) for an out

6th inning:
Ben caught a fly ball for out #1
Ben (shortstop) to Gavin (first) for out #2
Nathaniel (second) to Ben (shortstop) at second for the last out

Offensively...with a former Riverdog pitcher who came back to help us out...Coach Hayes...

Gavin: 2-4 with 1 run scored
Alex: 1-4 with 1 run scored
Ben: 2-4 with a double and 2 runs scored
Hayden: 3-3 with 1 run scored
Nathaniel: 1-3 with 1 RBI and 1 run scored
Brock: 3-3 with a double, 1 RBI and 1 run scored
Brayden: 2-3 with 2 RBI
Griffin: 0-3 with 1 RBI
Will: 0-3 with a hard hit to second

Pictures tomorrow at 12:15pm and then a game against the Bats at 2pm!!
