Covington Catholic/Beechwood 9th region Final Predictions
1310 replied to Blue Magic's topic in KY Baseball (High School)
No doubt about it, Cov Cath wins by run rule in 5 innings!!! -
I agree, Tyler Brake is, easily, one of the best pure hitters in the state!!!

Going into the season, Shuttleworth was absolutely Conner's #1 pitcher. After tearing he hamstring just prior to the season opener, Juniors Samad, Russell and West steped and did a great job. It was kind of fitting with yesterday being Memorial Day that Shuttleworth (a Naval Academy signee) had such a dominate outing.
-
Shuttleworth went 5 & 1/3 gave up 3 runs on 4 hits and must of had 9 or 10 Ks. Russell finished 1 & 2/3 innings with no hits and no runs. It was great to see Shuttleworth back on the mound and in complete control.

Donovan pitched an outstanding game, keeping a very good hitting Conner team off balance. My question is, where is Shuttleworth? He is one of only 4 seniors in the region that will be playing Division 1 baseball next year. So, Conner loses the District Championship game and a 1 seed in the Regional Tournament without ever having this left handed pitcher throw a single pitch?

35th District: Beechwood vs Covington Holy Cross

This thread says Smith has a broken eye socket and is done for the year, another thread says xrays were fine and he will be back. Does anyone have any confirmed information on the real story. -
35th District: Beechwood vs Covington Holy Cross

If Smith is on the mound, I'll take Beechwood 3-1. -
Thomas Noll is an outstanding young man. I'm sure he will do great things at the University of Cumberland. Congradulations to both him and his parents.

District seed game today to decide District 33's number one seed. Game was continued from a previous rain delayed game. Game resumed top of second inning with Conner at bat and leading 4-0. Samad started for Conner, Deno for Boone. Both teams hit the ball well all day. Conner's defense was outstanding, however once again had some base running blunders that cost a few runs. Boone had a few infield errors. Samad didn't seem as sharp as usual but pitched well enough to maintain the lead. Russel finished the game retiring all 6 batters he faced in the 6th and 7th innings. Pugh, Brake, West, Gill and Roberts carried most of the offense for Conner. Final seeding for 33rd District Play: #1 Conner plays winner of #4 Cooper vs #5 Heritage #2 Boone Co. vs #3 Ryle.

With all of Conner's top pitchers available (Samad, Russel and even Shuttleworth for a couple of innings) I'll take Conner with the 4-0 lead.

Best at each position? Updated Mid-season thoughts
1310 replied to nkychamp21's topic in KY Baseball (High School)
1st base - Tyler Brake from Conner. Outstanding 1st baseman. 510 ba, 4 hrs, 20+ rbis. One of if not the best pure hitters in the region. If Conner's 1 and 2 men in the order had better on base percentage he'd be slugging it out with Darner for the region rbi lead. -
The Conner/Boone game will be a continuation from the district seed game from a couple of weeks ago that was rain delayed. Top of the second, Conner batting and ahead 4-0.

Conner finally shows it can hit against good pitching. Pugh had multiple hits, Brake hit well, as usual, and was intentionally walked a couple of times. Noll also hit well and was intentionally walked. Gill, Roberts and West did a great job getting on base. It was especially nice to see Shuttleworth starting to get healthy. He had multiple extra base hits and either 4 or 5 rbis as the DH. All this was done against Ryle's ace, Eschied. Samad and Russell did a great job on the mound. Samad allows one run in each the 1st, 2nd and 6th. Russell pitches a scoreless 7th for the save.

Great job AJ. Now maybe people will stop wondering if he is one of the top pitchers in the 9th.
