DURA EDGE PUSHES PAST MACRI’S

STRUTHERS, OH-  On a night where hits were at a premium, Terry Dobson’s Dura Edge squad did the most with what they had.  Dura Edge would scatter just three hits to score 5 runs in a 5-1 victory on Tuesday night over Macri’s Sports.

Western Reserve product Dom Velasquez would be held without a hit but produce 2 RBI to lead the way for the black and gold.  For his efforts, he was also named the Baird Brothers Player of the Game.  Adam Walker would also make several impressive plays defensively but showed up most on the scoresheet accounting for 2 runs.

On the bump, Jake Bowen got the job done in style with 5 hits given up and not allowing a single run to score.  He would also walk one and fan two hitters.  Will Shaffer would come in relief allowing one run on three hits and also sitting down two Macri’s hitters via the strikeout.

For Macri’s, Sam Wells came out on fire and impressed all in attendance before allowing 5 runs on 2 hits, only 2 of those being earned.  Wells also contributed offensively with a double and an RBI late in the game.  Catcher Jared Bajerski would get on and steal a base before leaving the game with an injury.
