Game Summary: The Cumberland Beavers battled a tough Unity team despite dressing seven sophomores, three juniors, and only one senior for the game. Despite the youth, the Beavers scrapped and played a pretty solid game overall. The Beavers went down 1-0 in the 2nd when Derek Jorgenson led the inning off with a hard single to CF. He would come around to score on an eventual wild pitch by Beaver lefty, junior Tommy Zappa. The Eagles again got a lead off single in the 3rd, this time from Drew Walker, who scored on a groundout to 1B by Luke Nelson. Cumberland tied the game in the thhird with two of their own. Zappa drew a one out walk and got to 2B when Vaughn Waite drew a two-out walk. Both scored when LF Sawyer FollansbeeDelong sliced a double down into "Cappy's Corner". 2B Ryan Behling struck out to end the inning. Unity got another single run in the fourth inning when 1B Tyler Bublitz tripled down the RF line and scored when Zach Cherry doubled down that same line. The Eagles managed only one run despite having three hits in the inning. The Beavers took the lead with three runs in the fourth inning. DH D.J. Cifaldi got hit by a pitch to start out the inning. Eric Turcott, running for him, advanced to 2B on a Mike Harris sacrifice bunt. SS Adam Bielmeier got his 2nd hit of the game, a hard single to CF, scoring Turcott. He stole 2B. After C Beau Bergstrom struck out, Zappa beat out an infield single. In a bizarre play, Zappa got caught with too big of a lead at 1B, but Flaherty balked in the process. Bielmeier broke for home and scored anyway, avoiding the tag... while Zappa scampered to 3B. He then scored when RF Tim Carlson legged out an infield hit. Waite struck out with a 3-2 count to end the inning. Zappa got into immediate trouble in the fifth. Bielmeier mishandled a tough chance at SS to start the inning, allowing CF Jason Vlasnik to reach. Zappa then plunked C Luke Nelson, and then allowed a two-run double to Flaherty. Bielmieier came in with no outs, and limited the damage. Flaherty had advanced to 3B on a ground ball to Waite at 1B, and then scored on a sacrifice fly to RF by McKenzie. The Eagles scored one more insurance run in the 7th. McKenzie pitched the final three innings for Unity, allowing no runs and earning the save. |
