38th District Pendleton vs Nicholas Delayed in 4th Inning

[Hilltopper2005]

The Pendleton County vs Nicholas County game was delayed today in the bottom of the 4th inning with Nicholas County batting and leading 6-1. A tornado warning was issued for Pendleton County and the fans and players were escorted to Southern Elementary to take shelter. Thankfully no tornado was spotted in the area.

 

Tyler Daugherty started for Pendleton, Brent Jacob came on in the 3rd and Trent Turner in the 4tyh as Nicholas came out swinging and Pendleton made some mistakes in the field. The game is delayed until Tuesday at 4:30 weather permitting and will pick up with Nicholas County hitting with the bases loaded and 2 out. The Championship Game of the 38th District has been moved to Wednesday night. Wagner pitched very well for Nicholas County thru 4 innings working out of a bases loaded one out jam in the first as Pendleton had already scored the one run and failed to add any additional runs. Nicholas had a chance to go up 7-1 on a fly ball to left field, but the runner at third did not tag and thus the score remains 6-1 with Nicholas County batting in the bottom of the 4th inning.

Pendleton County's class night is Wednesday night. If they come back to win this game, the district championship can't be held on Wednesday.

Hopefully the Wildcats will rally in their last 3 at bats and be able to overcome the 5 run deficit and force a Thursday night Championship Game, Nicholas will have to pitch a different pitcher.
