Martin - 21 vs Desoto - 0
Game Summary
The best word to describe this game is "blowout". The Desoto pitcher started out OK allowing only two runs in the first inning and no runs in the second, but the third inning he walked five and allowed two hits before the Desoto Coach made a pitching change, but even the reliever couldn't put a stop to the Warrior offense. In the first inning Chase Brown got on base on a catching error and Jantzen Witte hit a single scoring Brown. Mike Chovanec was put out by the second baseman, but scored Witte. In the second inning Matt Schimpf hit a double and Ryan Nielsen was hit in the helmet by a pitch to get on base, but no runs were scored. In the third inning, the Warriors ended up batting around twice and then Coach Master pulled some of the starters as we began to bat around for the third time. Mike Hill scored the first two batters that walked with a triple to right center followed by Matt Schimpf's double to the same location scoring Hill. There were five walks before the next hit by Witte with a double to left center. Schimpf, Jacob Mizell, Justin Bateman and Christian Hibbs got base hits. Michael Chovanec hit a double but was thrown out trying to make it to third for the final out of the third inning - finally! Desoto put in another pitcher in the 4th inning. Tyler Osier hit a triple to right center and Hayden Steele got a base hit scoring Osier.
