Lots of exciting action in this game. Orioles started the game with hits by Brad Monroe, Kelan Long and Grant Brehm, but the Cardinals kept them from scoring. The Cardinals finished the inning with Zeke Ziegler scoring on a passed ball and an RBI by Cory Nicholson scoring J. Stout, ending the inning 2-0. Great pitching and defense by both teams takes us to the third inning with Danny Duarte’s big double, followed by another big double by Jake Volo, scoring Duarte. Jason Roe of the Cardinals came back with a big double followed by a single by Chase Stewart and the inning ended with Jason Roe stealing home. Brehm gets the Orioles going in the 4^th with a single, followed by Ryan Welander’s single and then both of them scoring on Elijah Blake’s big triple. Seth Knorr with a single, scores Blake, followed by singles by Duarte and Jacob Bonillas’ RBI single that scored Knorr bringing the score to 5-3. Great defense by both teams takes the game to the 6^th inning when Jason Roe hit his second double of the game and scored the last run for the Cardinals off an RBI double by Ziegler. But it wasn't enough to beat the Orioles. Orioles were victorious with a final score 5-4.
