The Raiders played the Colts from Nicholasville under the lights. The Colts have a tremendous team. Daisuke Imai pitched for the Raiders. Dice's undoing was 4 HBP's and a couple errors on the mound. Other than that, Dice pitched a very good game. The Raiders only managed a couple of hits against the West Jessamine pitcher (I think his number was # 29) - who was outstanding on the mound.

West Jessamine is the real deal. Their #29 pitcher throws high 80's and I was told has touched 90 and has a very sharp curveball. Ryle could only manage two singles off him. West Jessamine only managed 4 hits off Ryle pitching (4 innings - DiceK; 2 innings - Watson), but like straycat said, some free baserunners via HBP and a couple of errors allowed 3 unearned runs. Nice to see Ryle play with the #1 ranked team (Maxpreps) in the state. And they looked like a legit #1 team. Saw their #1 pitcher throw agaisnt Franklin County and he looked outstanding also. They certainly don't lack for quality pitching.
