For those that are keeping up with the other MINK teams in the World Series:Following a disappointing loss on Tuesday night the Nevada (MO) Griffons vented their frustration on the Hap-Dumont Sluggers, coming away with a 4-0 victory. Griffons pitcher Kyle Oesterreicher threw a complete game and walked no batters in an impressive shutout performance. The loss eliminates the Sluggers from the NBC World Series - while the Griffons will play on Sunday against a team to be determined.
The Sedalia Bombers and Wichita Sluggers completed a very exciting game under beautiful skies this morning. If you like offense then today’s game was for you as there were already thirteen runs and twenty-four hits on the scoreboard after seven innings. The final had Sedalia defeating the Wichita Sluggers by a final score of 10-8. Sedalia’s Zach Hardin went six innings, gave up nine hits, allowed one earned run, and struck out five.
Jason Dennis of Chillicothe had two doubles and two RBI's as the Mudcats took a commanding five run lead only to see the Valley Center Mud Dawgs storm back with two runs of their own in the eighth and four in the ninth inning to take the lead and seal the deal by the final score of 6-5.. Two crucial errors on the Mudcats part helped pull Valley Center back in the game in the top of the ninth. Mike Mariot, starter for the Mudcats, looked very strong as he went seven shutout innings, gave up six hits and had six strikeouts.
