Evan Stallman with the shutout for Cov Cath.

Stallman had very good command today. BW was off balance the entire game. Hats off to the Colonels... going into the 9th they look really good.

Candidly, thought this game for BW was a surprise to me. Fundamentals were not there on three key plays in 5 run 4th inning. Pitcher completely missed an easy FC that put runner on 1st. On successful squeeze play, pitcher had runner by 20 feet and bobbled the ball. Then on last run on a liner to left center, runner on 2nd got a late start and would have been an easy out at plate, but cutoff man got no instructions and just held ball. CovCth earned this victory; but, BW better tighten up fundamentally or they will be a quick regional out. Coach Grey was a very loud unhappy camper and I suspect the Tigers have it in them to respond.

Sounds like he had every reason to be.

Stallman was able to strike out the final batter in the last 5 innings. Tigers left runners in scoring position six times.

Is Stallman CC's #1? He was in control the whole game.

Stallman is very good, but Maile and Casteel have been equally effective this year.

I would assume whoever they view as their number 1 pitcher. Pitched in the 1st round district game, because that was the game that decided if your season ended or not.

Highlands threw Cramer.

When is the draw for the regional? Are they playing all first-round games at Florence Freedom on Memorial Day again?

Gotta tip your hat to Evan Stallman from Covcath, he pitched a great game. Even with our loss yesterday our season continues. 9th Region draw is Saturday. Gotta believe and play with confidence.

Draw is 9am Saturday at CovCath (pretty sure on the location).
