Game # 13 Mudcats-vs-Scrappers

Game #13 Mudcats -vs- Scrappers
Baseball on a beautiful Saturday afternoon, with lots of fun, food, bounce houses, dunk tanks, fundraising, bald headed West Raleigh buddies running around is ALL fun BUT WINNING on top of it all makes this Baseballl Saturday even sweeter !
Truly this baseball Saturday was electrifying because the spirit of raising money for West Raleigh Baseball VS- Cancer ! It appears this may become an annual event here at our "home away from home" !
Our "CATS" sported Mo Hawks, Jay Hawks, Jack Hawks & Big Red Hawks, Lefty Hawks, Hammer Hawks, Nitro Hawks , Jake Hawks, Tin0 Hawks , Trey Hawks & Thrill Hawks! The pre-game photo session was intimidating ! They looked "FEIRCE" !
The Scrappers did not come on to the field at all intimidated! The Scrappers owned the first 3 innings! Jay Hawk got our first RBI of the game bringing in Braden in the 2nd inning. Scrappers were leading this rumble 1-4 at the bottom of the 3rd inning! 
The Mudcat "SISTERS" were playing the walk up music, fans cheering but our Cardiac Cats needed to get warmed up before the excitement started for them on the baseball field !
4th Inning ~~~~Will the " DRILL" drilled the ball to the outfield, Cameron singled, Channing put up 2 RBI's-- he actually HIT the EDWARD JONES sign on the fence ! Trey singled moving Channing to 2nd base and Jake added to the excitement with 2 MORE RBI's ! Trey got in our FIRST PICKLE and made it home. Nick got a single and Tino completed this inning with a RBI !
At some point there was so much excitement running the bases, hitting fences, challenging the Scrapper infield-- I just could not write down all the excitement this at bat had !
Tino held tough at catcher to get a pop-up out, Will & Cameron both took care of outs 2 & 3 to end this inning 6-4!
5th &6th inning ~~~ Sean started us off with a single followed by Marcus ! Action Jackson stepped up to the plate ( giving his Mom a -- your going to go bald too when I hit this homerun --look )! Thankfully today was NOT Jacksons day for a homerun but he did get a RBI bringing in Sean. Will would follow up bringing in Marcus & Jackson adding up a 2 RBI hit !
Our "CATS" all followed up innings 5 & 6 with some solid defense and we would end this battle MUDCATS 9- SCRAPPERS 4 !
SO much fun ! Web gems went to Will, Cameron & Tino for Defense and all Cats got a sticker for a big " TEAM WIN" team effort and team commitment to success on & off the baseball field !
One more regular season game to go ! Those Bee's better be ready for a Wednesday night battle with the Cats !
