Athens Academy verses Social Circle (rain-out)
Athens Academy verses Social Circle (rain-out)
April 4, 2008
The Spartans and Redskins played over 3 innings before the clouds opened up and caused the game to be declared a rain-out. Although the game will be started from the beginning and stats do not count, there were highlights to share!
Scoring:
• In the third inning, James Colquitt led off the game (on his 17th birthday) with a walk.
• Matt Woodruff walked
• Patrick Jansen took the first pitch thrown to him and hit an explosive triple to the fence scoring James and Matt
Defense:
• In the first inning, Thomas Sanders went to his right at first base, snagged a hard hit ball, and then hustled back to the base for an unassisted out
• Thomas earned 7 put-outs in the first 3 2/3 innings, making his mark as an excellent first baseman
• In the third inning, McKay Matthews made a sensational play on what looked like a sure single up the middle and threw the runner out at first
• Evans Wellborn made three excellent plays, one in each inning, robbing the Redskins of base runners
• The Spartans had no errors
There will be four games played this week, starting off with the Redskins on Monday, April 7th, at 5:00 pm. Hope to see you there!
