Believe it or not, we played baseball in Grantsville today. The coaches worked hard to get the field playable. Although it was a little chilly, it was a great day for baseball.
If there could be any better news than being able to play, it is that the Cowboys played well and pulled out a 3-1 win over the Park City Miners. All of the scoring was done in the 3rd inning. The Miners got on the board in the top half of the inning using a double, stolen base, and a single to take a 1-0 lead. Grantsville answered back in the bottom half of the inning with 3 runs. Bridger Boman led off the inning reaching base on a hit by pitch. Drew Sutton laid down a well placed bunt forcing a bad throw to get the first 2 runners on in the inning. Lincoln Kelley stepped in the box and ripped a 2-run double. He moved to 3rd as the throw to the plate got away from the Miners. Kelby Landon then hit a long fly ball to score Kelley from 3rd giving Grantsville all the runs they would need.
Grantsville used 4 pitchers on the day. Kelbey Fisher got the start on the bump and went 2 strong innings. Dalen Erickson came in to throw the 3rd & 4th and was credited with the win. Skyler Cloward threw 1 inning and Andrew Nelson finished off the last 2 innings for Grantsville earning the save.
The Freshman games were postponed. Park City will return tomorrow (Wednesday March 9) and play the young Cowboys in one 7 inning game at Deseret Peak. The game is set to begin at 3:30.
The Cowboys will next be in action at the Donnie Pymm Pizza Hut Classic in St George with 2 games on Friday & 2 more on Saturday.
