CCHS_Dad Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 Again Henry County makes noise in the last inning but Carroll County holds on behind senior right hander Chris Hendrick. Wilson hits a three run dinger in the top of the 7th the next batter makes the 3rd out. Panthers advance to Wednesday's championship game which I think is Gallatin County who I heard wins in 8 innings 5-2. Go Panthers!
redsfan Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 CC made the plays when they had to last night especially when HC threatened with runners on 2nd and 3rd and no one out. CC recorded the first out going 5-2 on a tag play at the plate then turned the 4-6-3 Dp to end the threat. CC also has some very big AB's last night, a couple of 8 or 9 pitch AB's. Henry really tried to keep CC off balance with the breaking ball all night. In one sequence I think they threw one batter 8 or 9 straight curve balls. Hendrick helped himself with an RBI shot in the gap and DC Craig was 3-4 with 2 RBI and Tyler Gross had a 2 or 3 hits as well depending on the official scorer. Many other players throughout the lineup stepped up as well having key hits, including Zach Wise who led the game off and scored on DC's double in the first inning. Anytime HC threatened it was good to know the man child was on the hill, he has stepped up all year.
