Fans Flood the Field for Their Team

5/11/2015

 
The starters for the Shamrocks on Flood the Field night were Cameron Pritchett at pitcher, Brandon Carey at shortstop, Kyle Ruediger in center field, Andrew Menke at third base, Justin Shockley at catcher, Michael McKernan at first base, Cole Lensing in left field, Matthew Clines at second base, Nick Slocum in right field, and Kyle Luecke was the designated hitter for Nick Slocum.

In the first inning, the Warhawks scored one run by hitting a double, then a single, and two batters were walked. When the Shamrocks came up to bat, they didn’t score any runs.

During the next inning, Bourbon ended up not scoring at all. When New Haven came up, they scored 6 runs. The Shamrocks got off to a good start when Mckernan was hit by a pitch at the beginning of the inning. McKernan was happy to help out: “ As long as I get on base to help my teammates, it didn’t matter that I got hit by a pitch or not.”

Then, Lensing hit a single. Clines walked. Pritchett hit a single, and Ruediger hit a triple, which allowed 3 runs to score, making the score 5-0 New Haven. To end the inning, Menke got walked, and there was a passed ball. Ruediger ran in to score another run, making the score 6-0 New Haven.

At the top of the third inning, the Warhawks scored two runs on  a single, a stolen base, and an error, which allowed the runner make it to third. Finally, another batter got a single, scoring a run. This made the score 6-1.

To start the bottom of the third inning, the Shamrocks scored two runs by hitting a single, a double, and getting a hit by pitch. The score was then 8-1 New Haven.

No one scored any more runs until New Haven scored one run in the fifth inning, when Ruediger hit a double, McKernan walked, and Lensing got hit by a pitch, which allowed Ruediger to score.

In the seventh inning, it was the last chance for the Warhawks to come back. By the end of the seventh, the Warhawks ended up scoring five runs on  three singles and two doubles, making the ending score 9-7 New Haven and sending the Flood the Field crowd home happy

When the game was over, Pritchett discussed his pitching: “ I think I had a lot of walks, but a win is a win.”

Upcoming games for the Shamrocks include  the Cuba Wildcats on Monday May 4th, and the St. Clair bulldogs on Thursday, May 7th.

On April 29th, the New Haven Shamrocks baseball team took on the Bourbon Warhawks at home. This wasn’t just a regular game; this was Flood the Field--a spirit point opportunity for the NHHS classes. Spirit points are points that each class can earn for going to special events. The goal is to earn points to try to win a pizza and ice cream party at the end of the year for the class with the most points.
