MBC 13's beat the Columbia City Reds 8-5 on a sunny Saturday afternoon. The offense woke up and joined the good pitching and fielding and the team was rewarded with a win.
Eddie Lane started and after giving up two hits to the first two Reds he proceeded to retire the next twelve Reds hitters in order (actually 13 if you count one Red reaching on MBC's only error of the day). Eddie fanned three batters and left the game with a big smile.
Jake Welch pitched the next two innings, gave up some hits and a few runs but overall held the Reds in check. Jackson Hirch pitched a perfect seventh to bring home the win for the hometown fans.
Offensively, compared to previous games, this could be called an explosion. MBC recorded eight hits and reached bases on some errors by the Reds. Landon Fletcher lead the way with two hits, and Cole Burcham, Tom Carey, Joe Eskanzi, Jake Welch, Guthrie Morrison and Eddie Lane all had hits.
