Holt Junior Rams Black U10 - 2 Eaton Rapids Monroe - 3, Final

The Holt Jr Rams Black U10 team suffered a heartbreaking defeat to the Eaton Rapids Monroe Greyhounds 3 to 2. The Jr Rams had the bases loaded on multiple occasions looking to break the game open but couldn't push the tying run across. Leading the Jr Rams was Penski and Sadler who each bombed triples over the Greyhound outfielders. The defense was a little shaky, but tough pitching kept the Jr Rams in it.

Holt Jr. Rams White 19 Williamston Hornets 6

The Holt Jr. Rams White had a wonderful game while visiting the Williamston Hornets.  Cameron was our first pitcher who  had 4 strike outs and a great outing on his first time starting as a pitcher.  Cole came in to finish the second inning making his first debut as a pitcher under pressure with the bases loaded getting the batter out.  Jared had his first excellent pitching experience with 1 scoreless inning and having 2 strike outs.  Jakob finished the last 2 batters preserving Holts victory.  Jakob, Kody and Jackson each had their opportunity to catch and had few stolen bases allowed.  Jacob, Jared, Andrew, and Cole all started the infield for the first time and played very well stopping the ball and making outs.

 

The Holt Jr. Rams had 12 hits with the leading hitter Jakob having 4 hits followed by Brandon, Andrew  and Cole having 2 hits apiece. Jared,  Jackson and Austin all had hits.  In the highlights,  Cole had his first hit of the season and it was a shot to the outfield resulting in a Triple (3B).  Andrew had a 3 run HR hit to Left Center and had a slide that was tough to re-enact to beat the throw at home.  Jakob had a crushing hit to right center resulting in a 2 run HR  on his first time at bat of the game kick starting the team.  Brandon had 2 crushing hits to the outfield of which his injury prevented him from getting extended base hits.  Jared laid down a perfect bunt and beat out the throw to first base on his first at bat.   Cameron, Jacob and Jared were each walked 3 times while Jackson and Austin were walked twice.

 

This was a fun game and I hope I did not miss any highlights.  The final score:  Williamston Hornets 6 and Holt Jr. Rams white 19.   There next game is against Waverly on Friday.  Waverly is undefeated and leading the division.
