Thursday's Department of Michigan
American Legion Baseball results
* as available, and subject to my
mistakes *
As far as I'm
concerned both Midland Berryhill Post 165 and Gladwin Post 171 did a
fine job running their respective tournaments on Thursday. The
formal opening for the Class AA tournament (about 6pm) featured five
players from Midland Berryhill Post 165's 2009 American Legion World
Series team. It was fun to be able to get over and see Hudson's 1-0
along with two Adrian wins that were closer (I thought) than the
final scores indicate.
Again - if its
incorrect - I did it, but if it is right, I was just lucky!

*Jim says
- Well pitched game by both teams (Chris Thomsen for Hudson and
Trevor Bratonia for Marquette); a leadoff infield error in the fifth
led to the only run - a 2-out RBI single by Drew Defay. Marquette's
Levi Underwood was 3-for-3, twice with leadoff singles.

20/Hunter Hayes-2);
*Jim Says
- After six innings Adrian Post 275 held a 3-0 lead as Sanford had
left seven men on base. But Adrian scored three in the seventh and
two more in the eighth to give Adrian starter Phil Carel some
breathing room. Matt Clark, Nick Cowen, Hunter Hayes and Michell
Dempsey all had multi-hit games for Adrian. Hayden Clements pitched
well for Sanford, but sanford's runs came too few and too late.

(Woodhaven/15); 4/Tyler Hall (Southgate Anderson/14)); 2B (9/Rober
Oliver III; 4/Tyler Hall);
*Jim
says - Adrain took an early 3-0 lead over Wyandotte, but when
Wyandotte came back in the sixth to make it a one-run game Adrian
starter Matt Clark came back strong allowing no more runs and holding
Wyandotte scoreless in the eighth when they loaded the bases with one
out. Clark had another big offensive game (my stats - 4/8, 3 runs,
2RBI, 2-triples, 2-doubles on the day).
