Caldwell 7
Cherryville 5

Caldwell looked a little rusty after a few days off and made several errors in the game. Caldwell fell behind 5-0 early and fought back to take the lead on a Russle Reid 3 run homer with 2 outs in the 7th inning. Winning pitcher was Alex Fairwether. I think all the runs against him were unearned. Good game tonight typical Caldwell- Cherryville game, huge crowd, had to be well over 1000 people at deal stadium

 

Pineville's bats were silent tonight...hats off to Josh Drewery, he pitched a great game. Pineville's pitching was solid also...several key errors in the field was the difference in the ball game...all Shelby runs were unearned.

 

Caldwell and Cherryville both looked rusty on defense. All 5 of Cherryville's runs were unearned. Only 3 of Caldwell's runs were earned. I believe both team's shortstops committed 3 errors each.

On a positive note for Caldwell, Alex Fairweather continues to pitch brilliantly and has now pitched 62 and two-thirds innings on the year and has only given up a total of 3 earned runs for an overall era = 0.43.

Caldwell trailed 5 - 0 going into the bottom of the 5th inning with 2 outs and rallied to score 4 runs. I believe it was the bottom of the 7th inning with 2 outs once again that Caldwell took the lead on a 3 run deep homer by cleanup hitter Russell Reid. This is Russell's 5th season with Post 29 and he is definitely the team leader who refuses to let his team lose.
