Boyd Co kicks off the Derby Classic in fine fashion with a 10-0 mercy rule win. The lions got great pitching from Tyler Perkins and great production from the bottom of their lineup led by Ryan Crisp with a HR & 3 RBI's, Greg Bowling with 3 RBI's, and Justin Moore with 2 RBI's. It was a good sign for Boyd to get this win coming off a dissappointing performance against Ashland. Great job Lions and keep it up.

Who pitched for Raceland?

Wow, nice score....Great job Lions.

Phillips started for Raceland.

Great Game tonight. Tomorrow will be a couple of good tests for the Lions. Desales and Cov Catholic slugged out a good game for the night cap with Catholic winning 9-5. Boyd plays Desales at 1030 am and I believe Bowling is pitching

This lets the Rams know where they are at and what they need to work on. Congrats to B.C. on the win.

Errors is my best judgement. I had someone at both games Varsity and JV watching the games. Pure and simple errors on the Varsity in their opinion. Again please dont jump all over me just going on two phone calls. JV game their opinion was the same. Leaving pitchers in too long also for JV. I know you run out of pitchers and you have to think about future games but sometimes those little guys need a win under their belt to gain the momentum in the next game. If you start walking and hitting players on the other team pull them. Again all just opinion from people. It is easy to say but unless you are out there you really cant judge. I will say with some of the older Fairview fans and Raceland fans both felt the umpires should have kept the Fairview team in the dugout and quiet. Again wasnt there but it was said.

what does this have to do with the Boyd CO Raceland game?????:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

Apparently this guy is trying to get this thread closed. Boyd was just flat out better, Raceland appeared to be undermanned as they only had 10 players. When they were warming up a relief pitcher, the coach was warming him up until a kid came out of the stands to help. On a down note though, I couldn't help but notice the screaming fit that Vanderhoof put on his players before the game. He was in their faces screaming for all he was worth. I'm not sure if he was trying to pump them up or not, but from where I was sitting it seemed to be a little excessive.

By no means would I want to get a thread closed. I for one have always supported the Boyd County baseball team. Again, as I have explained in other threads I am not from Raceland just following them by a group of close friends and relations. Boyd always comes out with bats ready to play. I also mentioned I was not there so no I didnt see the fit(or so called fit)Coach Vanderhoof did. Again if you read my thread I said I was going on what others said and the worst that was said about bad behavior was at the JV game aganist Fairview. I just reported what I had heard about both games. As far as I know you can still do that on the BGP as long as you are not talking badly about a child, naming a child, or hurting someone personally. As far as Raceland again in my opinion they just come up shy of making adjustments. Looking back on other Raceland teams most played all the way through little league. They played babe ruth together while they were playing jv. Some still are on the team but mostly just the seniors. I just dont think they are coming together as a team. This may not have a thing to do with it but there is a definite division on this team and it needs to be repaired. The coaches are talented and so are the kids but its just not clicking. So in ending I dont go out of my way to stop threads but I dont approve of bad behavior on or off the fields by anyone. This is suppose to be the greatest game you can play.

I am not sure what bad behavior you are talking about from Boyd.....Only thing negative I saw was Racelands coach telling a kid how terrible he was and that he was scared of the baseball, and that he would never play that position again.......could keep going but......Good win for Boyd.

Yeah, he was ripping the kid for a good five minutes...and he was even ripping him when the national anthem was getting ready to be played. I thought that was very rude and unprofessional on his part.

Oh, I am so sorry. I did not make it clear on my post. Their were no bad behavior on Boyd County. I merely stated that I had two people calling me from both the Varsity and JV games. The bad behavior much like you are talking about happened at the Raceland JV game versus Fairview. I apologize to all Boyd County fans, players, coaches. I sat with them the other day and have followed BC for years. Think the world of the team and its coaches. If coach Vanderhoof performed in that manner and if you were there I guess you know then its unusual from what I have seen. An occasional dip or a hat toss but he must have really been upset and as far as through the National Anthem he is very respectful so I cant imagine what happened.

I can say for sure that parents heard the JV Fairview from the track shouting and it wasnt positive plus they were not just standing at their dugout they were too far out onto the field. No point in this behavior they were winning by a bunch.

:thumb: :thumb: Gotcha buddy!!!!:thumb: :thumb: You did kinda stump me there for a minute.... I too was at the BC games this weekend, and Boyd is very respectful before during and after the games... I think if you have a goos respectful team, it flows out into the crowd. Boyd, as well as Raceland have very respectful crowds. I enjoyed watching the BC Raceland game. Two really good teams

Hey KOTJ, Did you get to take a break and try the pulled pork and baked beans, corn on the cob and finish it off with strawberry shortcake.

 

Got to try to get to your raslin weight.

 

What a feed at a baseball game!!!!
