Great day for baseball as Batesville Varsity splits with Harrison in a double header Saturday, April 19th.
Game 1-Harrison 6, Batesville 3
Wes McKinney on the mound for the dogs throwing 5 1/3 innings – 2 earned runs, 4 walks, and 1 strike out. Tyler Folkman came in and pitched 1 2/3 of an inning and lets no runs score. Errors were costly in this game as the Wildcats only had 2 earned runs out of their 6 runs scored.
Game 2-Batesville 2, Harrison 1
Ben Wilson has a phenomenal day on the mound throwing 53 pitches in 6 full innings. He also gave up only 1 run on 5 hits. Bryan Hoeing shuts the door on the Cats in the top of the 7th with 2 strikeouts and gets a ground ball to 2nd Base to end the game. Solid Defense (whole team) and 2 sack fly’s by Wes McKinney at the plate helped the dogs in the win!
