The War Eagles opened their inaugural season against Alma today. We got off to a shaky start and gave up 4 runs in the first inning. We settled down in the field but it took us a while to get the bats going.
Spanky got the first ever War Eagle hit in the 4th inning. Tyler ran for him but was left stranded.
We batted around in the 5th inning and scored 4 runs to tie it up. Matt reached on an error then Casey got a hit to right center to move him to 3rd. Collin had the first War Eage RBI - a sac fly to center to score Matt. Huntor walked then Travis hit a single to load the bases. Reed hit the first pitch to right center, scoring Casey and Huntor. Spanky hit a double to score Travis and tie up the game.
Alma scored 2 in the top of the 6th on 3 hits and an error - Aaron Cluck got ahold of a fast ball to deep right center for a triple. Travis walked to lead off the 7th, stole 2nd then Payton hit him home with a single. Tyler ran for Payton and was left stranded at 2nd to end the game.
Travis pitched the first 5 innings and Payton the last 2.
Varsity/JV plays Siloam Springs Thursday afternoon at Northwest Park.
