Meridians Baseball

Strong pitching from Meridians' newcomers Dizzy Peyton (NKU) and Frank Engoglia (Thomas More) along with veterans Rack and Kamm hold the Cincinnati Storm offense to a light breeze, but Meridians' bats don't do any better with only two runs of their own to win Game one 2-1, but nothing to contest their 1 run in Game two. Meridians only field nine for the double dip, with 2 pitchers hitting for the first time since 2005. Soto continues his hot hitting from the morning's Roy Hobbs game (3-3, HR, Sac fly, 5 RBI) with a single and double in Game one. In his first games back this year, Bush finally finds his stroke after swearing off the game after his first few at-bats. Fread continues to erase runners off the basepaths and be a rock behind the dish.
