The Warriors (11-3) started off the East Regional Homeschool Tournament with an awesome display of fire power. Winning by a score of 9-3 over the Atlanta South Knights, the Warriors pounded out 13 hits, including 7 extra base hits: a HR by Chris, triples by TJ, Taylor and Bill, and doubles by Zach, Caleb and Chris. Multihit games for Caleb ( 3-4), Chris (3-4), Taylor (2-4), and Matthew (2-3).
Bill started out pitching the first inning and battled the wind, an error, and some control problems and surrendered two runs (none earned) before giving way to Caleb after 1 batter in the second. Caleb pitched a masterful 4 innings giving up 1 run, on 3 hits. Matthew pitched a scoreless 6th and Thomas pitched a scoreless 7th to secure the win.
Defensively, the Warriors played very well highlighted by an ESPN Web Gem diving catch in left field by Christopher that saved 1 run (possibly 2) and stopped a potential rally for the Knights in the 3rd inning.
This game was a good first step towards our goal of securing a spot in the World Series. Our next game is scheduled for 12:30 on Thursday.
