His knowlege of the game helped him succeed on the field and will help him a lot as a baseball educator. Much like Coach Parr, Mat has strong experiences as a hitter and as a pitcher.

The JV Baseball team defeated J-town last night by a score of 10-0 in 6 innings. On the mound, Colin McFarland was one batter away from pitching a perfect game, striking out 8 batters over 6 innings in a dominant performance. At the plate, Hunter Fischer led the way with 2 hits, 3 RBI’s and 3 runs scored. Grant Knight added 2 hits and 2 RBI’s as well. With the victory, the JV team’s record stands at 24-3. The team will be in action again tonight against Waggener at home at 5:00 PM. 

I understand the only hitter to get on base was a HBP and that was on a curveball the hitter tried to duck under and it hit him in the helmet over the plate. 

Cody (Montgomery) pitched tonight two innings six strikeouts 1 hit and two walks no runs.

Went one for three hitting ripped a double up the right center field. Played Nelson County

12-7.

Tj (TJ Barr) laid down a bouncing bunt walkout to win the game ----second time he has been in that spot. What a game we started out up then tied it up when Shew (Tyler Shewmaker) was on the hill. We went back up and then they tied it when Ridley was on the hill.  Then we went back up with a freshman on the hill.  That was some game.

(Montgomery, Barr and Shewmaker are all current or former clients of RPBaseball)
