Ben Thomson (2-3, 2RBI, 2B) led the game off with a hit, and stole second. The O'Brien pitcher then walked Tino Peleti (1-3) and hit Stuart Fairchild (1-3, RBI) and Jake Hawken (1-3, 1 RBI) back to back to force in a run. Campbell Queen (1-3, 2RBI) then drove in two with a scorcher up the middle. The fun was not over as Spencer Hogger (1-2, RBI) then blasted a ball over the center fielder's head. When the crazy inning ended MBC held a 6-0 lead.
In the third after two quick outs, Mitchell Smith (3 walks) walked and was moved along by John Peterson's base hit. David Becker (2-3, 2RBI 2B) then launched a ball deep into the gap for a two run double, which was followed by Ben Thomson's double over the now tired center fielder. After a walk to Nick Reeves the center fielder had just enough energy left to chase down Tino's tremendous blast into center.
Tino Peleti pitched four strong innings allowing four hits and one unearned run. He was followed by Stuart Fairchild who pitched well, but had the misfortune to experience the now desperate bats of the O'Brien team. Thing got a little dicey at the end, and Tino came in for a save once the tieing run reached base.
A big win against a big opponent in the first game of the season, can it get any better????
