Spencer Hogger in the ER
MBC got some payback on the Steelheads in game on of the State Tournament beating the Steelheads 9-7.
Stuart Fairchild pitched his best game ever going four and 2/3 innings fanning seven. Everyday Russell Madche closed it out and MBC moved on.
MBC broke out on top early with two runs in the second. Ethan Clements walked and moved to second on a passed ball. Nick Reeves belted a double into the gap to score Ethan and scored on Adam Hinthorne's single.
But the pesky Steelheads came back to score three in the third.
In the fifth, MBC took the lead for good with a four run inning. Adam led off with a single and the Steelheads could not get an out on David Becker's picture perfect bunt. A walk to Mitchell Smith loaded the bases for hot hitting Nick Salle who came through with a clutch single to score two.
In a just horrible moment, a pitch got away from the hard throwing Steelhead pitcher and Spencer Hogger was hit in the mouth. No teeth were lost (thankfully) and a shocked Spencer was taken to the hospital for eight stiches.
After the dust settled, Tino Peleti pouched a single to left to score two, and give MBC a lead they would hold onto.
Hits by Mitchell Smith and Nick Salle in the seventh put MBC back in business for some add on runs. Mitchell scored on Tino's infield out and after two walks Ethan and Nick Reeves each singled home a runs.
