Jim's scoring - I make my
choices (hit & errors) and don't dwell on them. So don't think
my stats are “undonditionally” right or wrong. Earned runs are
spotty - I make my best guess.
If I didn't score the game I'm using
GameChanger as available.

Jim's notes: Findlay's Kellen
Frankart and Sidney's Chase Monnin dueled into the sixth inning tied
2-2, but in the bottom of the sixth a leadoff error and a two out
rally (RBI single by Trenton Smith, infield error and a two run
double by Frankart) gave Findlay a 5-2 lead and reliever Grant Mason
(taking over in the top of the sixth) closed out for the win. Noah
Aufderhaar and Caleb Davis had two hits for Sidney, Atley Zerkle had
a double; Monnin pitched the complete game. Findlay was led by
Trenton Smith (3 hits, 1RBI), Frankart (3 hits, 2RBI, double) and

Jim's notes: Columbus/532 was
short on pitching and Adrian/275 short on bodies - leading to an
interesting game. Columbus starter Drew Hobbs went 4-2/3 innings
(pitch count) and left with a 10-10 tie - Columbus then almost got
out of the bottom of the 6th with a tie, but with two out Adrian
scored twice on a single, error, walk, wild pitch and an RBI single
by Jordan Medellin. Carter Bettcher started for Adrian (5 runs, 3
earned?) followed by Cameron Sherwood (2 runs, 1 earned?) and Max
Bledsoe who got the win (3 runs, 1 earned?). For Columbus I had
Casey Lee with 2 hits (2B), Micah Carroll and Dana Byrd with 2RBI
each, and Caden Camphorst with a double. Adrian had two hits from
Medellin, 2RBI from Tristan Hayes and Jordan Illenden, and doubles
from Hayes and Calen Keith.
