Scott has come out and laid an egg today but Ryle has continued the same solid play they have displayed the entire tournament and the 6-0 lead they have is a testament to that.

Ryle's pitcher has done a very good job tonight with nice a mix of fastball and breaking balls. Ryle's defense also has handled everything that has come their way.

 

As I say this Ryle's LF makes a great catch as he lays out for a ball down the line.

Scott threatening to break into the runs column with 2 on with 1 out in the bottom of 5.

 

And I agree, terrific catch by the LFer.

As soon as I post that, Ryle turns a 6-3 DP to end the inning.

Ryle gets out of the 5th with a double play as Scott had runners on first and second with one out.

Scott has finally settled down defensively but their bats remain cold.

 

Scott's catcher then guns a runner at second as I post this.

At the end of 6 it's still 6-0 Ryle.

Mason Forbes with the acrobatic catch in LF and it was indeed a dandy.

 

Ryle pitcher Michael Nelson was impressive tonight. Kid lived at the knees all night long and had Scott hitters constantly swinging at curveballs around their ankles. Control faded a bit in the 7th as he walked a couple hitters and was pulled for a reliever (Ethan Brennan), who promptly shut the door on the Eagles.

 

Great tourney and bright future for both teams.
