News and Announcements
First game of the season for the Mud Hens proved to be exciting as they went up against the Bats. Mud Hens came out swinging with a double by Thomas Williams. Zachary Pratte hits a solid single to send Williams home to score. The Bats come back hard with some great hits but the Mud Hens' defense is strong. Both Pratte and Reilly Kells catch pop flies making the first two outs look easy. Jag Burden proves to be an ace pitcher as he strikes out the 3rd batter to end the inning quickly. Bottom of the second, the Bats score tying things up. Chance DiMarco takes his turn on the mound, quickly striking out three batters. However, the tide turned to the Bats in the bottom of the fourth. Alec Muirhead hits an RBI to give them the lead. Mud Hens give it their all. Both Nick Skorheim & Paul Crocker hit singles during the fifth, but the Bats were ready and made the outs. In the end, the Bats prevailed 2 to 1 in an amazing first game fight.
