In a very unusual game where 11 runs were scored in the first three half-innings, the following ten half-innings would fail to produce a run.  The Mustangs rallied in the home half of the seventh inning, trailing 7-4.  That half-inning began with Isaac Amin hitting his third home run of the season bringing his team to within two runs from walking it off.  Following a strikeout, Luke Neltner singled and was then forced at second on a fielders choice.  J.M. Meier then walked and Ben Doyle reached on an error, scoring the designated runner Moree, making it 7-6 with the bases loaded, when we bounced back to the pitcher to end the threat and pin our guys with their seventh straight loss.  Four Mustang errors contributed to our demise.  Isaac Amin was three for four on the evening with two runs scored and two more knocked in.  Nolan Schroeder had two hits including a double, knocking home two teammates.

Junior Kasey Moeller got the starting assignment and went five complete innings, allowing seven runs, only two of which were earned, on six hits, striking out and walking three Royals.  He was relieved by Sophomore Owen Record who gave us two quality innings of work, allowed a single hit, and walked one.

Our guys will take a day away from baseball on Friday and be back at the MAC on Saturday morning at 11am to take on the Cincinnati Trailblazers out of West Chester, Ohio.  They are a varsity team comprised of homeschooled boys.  They play in a conference comprised of other homeschooled teams.  They also play in a post-season tournament conducted in Kentucky or Tennessee. Their webpage home page shows their record to be 8-7.
