Baseball Team Suffers 15-0 Defeat at Hands of WCV
Charger baseball fans had little to cheer about last night, as West Central Valley recorded a 15-0 shutout of the ACGC team. It was apparent from the get go that the Wildcats were the dominant team last night when they tallied nine unearned runs in their first at bat. Sub par fielding by ACGC contributed to the big first inning for WCV. WCV added five runs in the third inning and one in the fourth to end the game early by the fifteen run rule.
Wildcat pitching silenced the Charger bats, as Quenton Spack and Ben Kingery were the only Chargers to get base hits. Logan Brincks took the loss for ACGC, lasting just 2/3 of an inning on the mound while giving up eight runs, none of which were earned. Quenton Spack, Eli Kading, and Mike Ure also pitched for the Chargers.
The loss dropped the season record to 1-13 for the season (0-11 WCAC). The task before the Chargers does not get any easier, as conference leading Van Meter is scheduled to play on the local diamond tonight. A junior varsity game is scheduled for 5 PM with the varsity to follow.
