Boone 8 CovCath 6 in the second round of the Doc Morris wooden bat tournament.

Any stats?

Who will Boone play now

Very well played game. Nate Allford pitched for Boone County and other than the second inning where he gave up 3 runs he was very good. Nutini pitched for CCH and Boone hit the ball very well. The Rebels on Defense turned two double plays in the game one of which came in the seventh inning after Maile hit a fastball over the fence. I have few stats to add but not a complete pitcher of game. Daniel Lokesak was 3-4 witha double and two singles. Trevor Dunaway was 2-5 with 2 huge doubles. Nate Alford had two hits as did Nick Hummerick. Luke Sciamannna had double in the sixth which led to another Boone run late in the game. Many great at bats for the Rebels today Brennan Carrol had two great Sacrific Bunts. Ronald Cotton hit a long a ball into the deepest part of left feild. Brian Roberson had a clutch hit as well. Jackson Laurman? had several big scoops at first base. Boones pitching held up well today with Jordan Bryant closing the door in the sixth and seventh inning.

 

It was a very fun game to watch. I was proud of the Rebels hitting today and the total team effort. They beat a very Good Cov Cath team today.

Nice win for Boone.

I don't think it would be going out on a limb saying Boone has the best hitting team in the 9th. I saw them put up 15 hits yesterday and it sounds like they kept that hitting attack going today against a pretty darn good pitcher. Not many teams can say that they scored 18 runs in back to back games vs Etscheid and Nutini.

As a whole lineup I will disagree. The top 5 of that lineup, though, is stacked. Lokesak, Dunaway, Cotton, etc. can hit with any team.

Way to go Rebels!!! Very good game.

At this point, I would agree with your assessment. And it is a mistake for anyone to say that only the top 5 in Boone's order is strong. It drops off - as does every team - but there are some legit hitters in the lower part of Boone's lineup also. If they get their pitching rotation straightened out and they are going to be a serious player in the 9th regional play.

 

But they will lose to Ryle next time they meet up, of that I am sure . . . . .

Who was the pitcher or pitcher(s) to finally give cov cath there first loss?

Nate Alford -starter Jordan Bryant -Save (2 Innings)

Nutini loss- (Nutini CCH)

Where is TOG's breakdown? I am anxious to hear...

I was impressed with the catcher for Boone, his hitting is tremendous. They have a good solid five, but the bottom of their order isn't great. I think they are hot hitting right now, but I don't know about best in the region. Nor have I seen all of the teams in the region so..

 

CovCath needed to lose at some point, and now they need to refocus, get it together, and move on from it. All is good..they are still the best team up here, and hopefully this lights a fire for them to prove it even more.

:confused: Yeah, he usually posts right away?

Well, it wasn't cold so he doesn't need to warm up and dinner should be over by now!! Just kidding TOG, love your breakdowns. Cov Cath will be tough to beat when it really counts. Great win for Boone though and to think Cooper had them for five innings. :cry:
