Rd 3 Results

1st Grade held off a late charge from a determined Indians side to win 10-8 in a warm day at Adcock Park. After Leading 9 nil early on, a pitching change from us saw Indians score 5 runs in the 8th, and then 3 runs in the 9th. But the boys held on and we managed the win. Thank you to the lower grades for backing up. Well done to Ben Ardrey who pitched a no hitter and no runs against him in his 6 innings. Great batting by Craig Hardwick, Nathan Young & Tate Ward.

2nd Grade What a fantastic game of baseball today with great starting, middle relief & closing pitching from Matt Perry, who allowed only 1 hit all game. Matt also lead with the bat picking up 2 hits. A close game for 4 innings with us only leading 2-1 going into the last dig. After the boys strung some hits together the runs followed and we scored 10 runs in the final innings. Some tidy fielding from Dillan McMaster and Matt Perry who had a terrific all round game today, set up a great 12-1 victory.

3rd Grade: No Report as yet

4th Grade: Rebels played Royals in a great game of baseball out at Adelaide st on Saturday. For the Rebels, Doug Smith pitched well and had 2 hits to set up the 5-3 Victory. Darren Peterson also batted well with 2 hits. Andy Clyburn had a great impact in the field. For the Royals, Darrell Duncan led with the bat with 2 hits and Chad Connelly caught well. Overall a terrific game to watch that could have gone either way, but in the end 2 RBI's to Dougie Smith sealed the victory for the Rebels.

5th Grade: The Rebels tried really hard to win their game against a young Indians side, but just couldn't string the hits together needed to put more runs on the board. Adam Mitchell started really well on the mound but a few fielding errors from the team in the first couple of digs saw some unearned runs score. Col Tippett closed out the game also with some great pitching but we were unable to catch up and went down 7-5.

5th Grade: Royals BYE
