Game 9 - Barrington/IL Post 158 2 (2-1/23-15), Janesville/WI Post 205 1 (1-2/21-11) - elimination - Jim's unofficial scoring
*v Barrington/158: 0-0-0.0-0-0.2 = 2; (2-6-0-6lob); SP/WP-Nick Lacson (Barrington/23-Colrado School of Mines; 7ip/26bf-CG (87p), 1R/1er, 7H, 4K); GWRBI (7th inning, 2-out walk to Brendan Beals (Barrington/23));
*H Janesville/205: SP/LP-Dylan Snyder (Janesville Craig/23-St Mary's/MN; 7ip/29bf (91p), 2R/0er, 6H. 1BB, 5K, 1-IntBB); 2H (Trace Jacobson (Janesville Parker/22-St Norbert)); 2B (Jacobson);
*Official box: http://www.statbroadcast.com/events/archived.php?id=468295
*Jim's unofficial notes:
*General note - a close, fast-paced and exciting game. Some errors / mistakes but well pitched (2 complete games, 1 walk, 9 strikeouts combined).
*Errors matter: A top of the 7th inning, 2-out error with bases loaded allowed Barrington/158 to tie the game at 1-1;
*Walks matter: Janesville/205 only issued one walk - a 2-out bases loaded walk in the top of the 7th to give Barrington/158 a 2-1 lead (Janesville/205 also had one Intentional Walk);
*Players need to know the game of baseball and the situation - with 1 out (runners 2nd & 3rd) in the bottom of the 5th (score 0-0) a flyball to center seems like a sacrifice fly - but the runner on 2nd was late returning to 2nd and was doubled off to end the inning;
*Keep your head in the game at all times - In the bottom of the 6th a 1-out/runner on 1st double scores the runner from 1st with a close play at the plate - but the batter is caught (in a run-down) trying to advance to 3rd on the same play;
*Jim's Narrative top of the 7th for Barrington/158 - score is Janesville 1, Barrington 0 -
(1) Strikeout; (2) infield single; (3) popup to short - 2 out!; (4) single to right, runner on 1st goes to 3rd; (4a) runner on 1st steals 2nd; (5) with 2-0 count Intentional Walk to load the bases; (6) ground ball to 3rd, attempting to tag runner the ball rolls free - 1 run scores (1-1), bases remain loaded; (7) RBI Walk, score now Barrington/158-2, Janesville/205-1; (8) linedrive out to RF; Janesville went 1-2-3 in the bottom of the 7th;
*
Game 10 - Eau Claire/WI Post 53 3 (2-1/28-8), Linwood/MI Post 239 2 (1-2/20-13) - elimination - Jim's unofficial scoring
*v Linwood/239: 0-0-0.2-0-0.0 = 2; (2-7-4-9); SP/nd-Daniel Duley (Freeland/24; 2ip/9bf (30), 0R, 0H, 3BB, 1-HBP); P2/LP-Jacob Kowalksi (Freeland/23-Mid Michigan; 4.1ip/23bf (77p), 3R/1er, 3H, 4BB, 2-HBP); 2H (Chase Raymond (Standish-Sterling/22-Saginaw Valley); Connor Dee-3 (Gladwin/23-Spring Arbor));
*H Eau Claire/53: 0-0-0.1-0-0.2 = 3; (3-3-1-10); SP/nd-Bennett Stokke (Altoona/25; 4ip/19bf (65p), 2R/2er, 4H, 3BB, 3K, 1-HBP); P2/WP-Sawyer Stein (Eau Claire Memorial/24; 3ip/13bf (37p), 0R, 3H); 2H (Trenton Palmer (Eau Claire North/23); 2RBI (Palmer); GWRBI (Palmer - 1-out, 2RBI single in the bottom of the 7th);
*Official box: http://www.statbroadcast.com/events/archived.php?id=468296
*Jim's unofficial notes:
*General note: A close game, tense with Eau Claire Post 53 leaving 10 men on base and Linwood Post 239 leaving 9. Linwood Post 239 had two critical errors in the bottom of the 7th.
*Eau Claire/53's starting pitcher Bennett Stokke took a pitch off his helmet in the 2nd inning, stayed in but left after pitching the 4th inning;
*Getting away with “freebies”?: Linwood/239 issued 7 walks, 3 hit-batters and 4 errors where the batter reached base - but only 2 of those 14 baserunners scored;
*The timing of “freebies” matters!: Linwood/239 gave up one walk and two errors in the bottom of the 7th to load the bases with 1 out - followed by the game-winning 2 RBI single;
*Double plays help: Linwood/239 had double plays in the first 3 innings stranding three Eau Claire/53 baserunners;
*Failure to capitalize: Linwood/239 had 5 men reach to start the 4th inning (single, single, HBP, RBI walk, RBI walk) but then a foul-out to third, a strikeout and a fly-out to center for only two runs.
*Jim's Narrative bottom of the 7th for Eau Claire Post 53 (Linwood/239-2, Eau Claire 53-1): (1) Batter safe at 1st (E3F); (2) Sac Bunt (1-3), baserunner advances to 2nd; (3) Walk (runners on 2nd, 1st); (4) Fielder's Choice/E4F to load the bases with 1 out; (5) A 2-run single to center, play at the plate on the 2nd runner ws too late (though close);
