The Caps ran into a buzz saw against the Spartans who played like a championship ball club.  Sanderson Jr Matt Koehler (Son of BHS alumni David Koehler ’91) played a good game in Center Field going 2-3.  The Caps will try to bounce back Friday afternoon against Enloe.

Coach Jones ” No doubt that our effort against Sanderson was a real setback. But we still control our final position.  We will regroup and go to work.”

BHS made it a game but just ran out of innings.  After a rocky start in the first the Caps dug in their heels and got back in the game.  Final score 6-4  

Coach Jones ” We battled but we did not execute well enough in any phase of the game.  Green Hope is a very good team.  We need to raise the bar another notch to build consistency, especially against quality competition.”

Caps had a 4-2 lead after the 5th but could not hold on giving up 2 in the 6th and 2 in the 7th.  Jr Rob Case had a nice day going 3-4 with a double.  

Coach Newton ” Yesterday we got off to a good start off a good pitcher and built an earlier lead.  Millbrook did a good job working back into the game and their pitcher got stronger as the game went on.  We have been preaching for two years about finishing strong and yesterday was one of those days where we started well, but we were not able to finish the job.  We are in a tough conference and we have to continue to work hard and get better each day.”

Leading Hitters; Case (3-4 2B,), White(1-2 RBI), Collins

baseball Trying to catch

Sr. Joe Bialkowski throws 3 hit shutout over Wakefield
Final score BHS 4 Wakefield 0

Caps picked up right where they left off before spring break.  Bialkowski had not seen action in 2.5 weeks but his performance was quite impressive.  Just 2 walks and 8Ks in a complete game shutout.  Sr. Wilson White reached base all 4 at bats and Sr. Maclin Batchelor drove in 2 Runs.  Th at bats certainly improved throughout the game.

Coach Jones ” The Energy was very good and very positive.  I saw some impressive things, like field presence and moxie.  That has always been there, but tended to be shy.  There were offensive contributions throughout the lineup.  Everyone was on the same page. This shows real progress for the team and the program.”

Leading Hitters; Case (2-3 2B), Batchelor (2-4 2B, 2RBI), White (3-3 R) 

Record Overall (9-4) Conference (6-0)
