Moeller vs Highlands on Monday at Shuler Park. Moeller earns the win 8-7 with walkoff single by Hopkins. Exciting game to watch!

 

Highlands pitched Hunter Dreves 4 1/3, Grady Cramer 2/3, Tanner Juett 1, closed with Kyle Winkler.

It was a pitcher duo until the 5 inning. Pacetti pitched 4 no hit innings. Dreves have up one hit in 4 innings. Then both teams exploded. Birds struck first with 4 runs on 3 hits. Hennigan with rbi single then Kavanaugh with 2 rbi triple. Kavanaugh scores on a wild pitch. Moeller strikes back with 7 runs on 3 hits. Top of the 7th, Birds scratch 3 runs to tie the ball game. Cooper Schwalback scores on wild pitch then runners on 2nd and 3rd with Trey Gabbard at the plate. He smacks one to 3rd Moeller attempts 5-4-3 doubleplay but Trey beats it out scoring both runners(Kavanaugh and Steiden). Bird fans going crazy but it didn’t last long. In bottom of the 7th Moeller’s #16 Hopkins with walkoff single for the win.

 

Moeller pitched Pacetti 4 innings, #8 Lawson, #11 Treadway, and closed with #17 Logue.

I am confused.....if runners are on 2nd and 3rd why would Moeller have attempted a 5-4-3 double play?

Your right that is confusing. The bases were loaded then. Everything came from memory is my excuse!

There has been a lot said about the talent on this Highlands team including the D1 commitments. However, there is one player that rarely receives the accolades he deserves. He plays wherever he is needed defensively and hits wherever he is needed in the lineup. He is a gamer and flat out gets the job done in every aspect of the game. The people around this program know how important Sammy Hennigan is.

Completely agree with this post. But I would also like to see Joe Steiden get more recognition.
