CL not invited to Party in Loss to Fredericksburg, 12-6
At least this was not a ‘Heart’ breaker game, but it hurt just the same as Canyon Lake had pitching,
hitting and fielding woes all come to the same party at the same time in their loss to Fredericksburg, 12-6.
The Billies sent nine batters to the plate in that first inning giving CL a taste of what might happen, but then Canyon Lake also responded with five runs in their next two innings to take a one run lead and momentum.
Four of CL’s six hits were in those first two innings as they could only scrape across to more runs in this game.
Some very good defensive gems were also present at this party that turned bad.
JJ Nance had a great play in right field when he fielded a hard hit single and threw the first base runner out at second base.
Kyler Huff in centerfield also threw out a runner trying to advance to third in that first inning resulting in a double play on a fly ball out.
Nick Cahill then pegged a runner trying to score on a single at home plate and Catcher Michael Brady had the honors of tagging a Billie on the ear.
A double play started by SS Peyton Sipila in the second inning kept Fredericksburg at bay by letting Pitcher Ryan Hutcheson facing the minimum.
The last double play was in the seventh inning started once again by Sipila to keep the Billies to only one run in that stanza.
All total with hit batters, walks, hits, and errors Canyon Lake allowed 24 Fredericksburg players reach base. Way to many to expect a good outcome to be your result.
“Our pitching wasn’t very good,” Head Coach Trent Dunavant started. “We had some good plays, but we were not a good offensive team and giving up so many base runners is hard to get a win.”
Canyon Lake will get back into action this Thursday when they travel to Fredericksburg to play the final game of their series.
Hopefully the Hawks can have a surprise party for Fredericksburg and pull out a win this go round.
