Written by Cole Havens on August 4, 2020
HAYDEN BRONNENBERG PITCHED A COMPLETE GAME, TRISTAN BLATT, JACKSON SCHROEDER AND ETHAN JOHNSTON COMBINED FOR 7 RBI’S AND THE CODY CUBS SCRAPED BY THE DOUGLAS CATS MONDAY NIGHT 9-5.
AFTER LIGHTNING STRUCK IN THE SKY THAT DELAYED THE CUBS VS. CATS MONDAY NIGHT TRISTAN BLATT WOULD LEAD OFF THE GAME WITH A 3-RUN HOME RUN TO OPEN UP THE SCORING BUT THE DOUGLAS WOULD ANSWER IN THE BOTTOM OF THE 1ST WITH 4 RUNS OF THEIR OWN CAPITALIZING ON CODY MISCUES TO TAKE THE LEAD 4-3 AFTER 1 INNING.
CODY WOULD RE-TAKE THE LEAD IN THE THIRD INNING THANKS TO A JACKSON SCHROEDER 2-OUT, 2-RBI DOUBLE AND THE CUBS WOULD NEVER LOOK BACK LEADING THE REST OF THE GAME.
JOHNSTON TACKED ON 2 MORE INSURANCE RUNS IN THE TOP OF THE 7TH WITH A SINGLE UP THE MIDDLE AND BRONNENBERG WOULD THROW 100 PITCHES TO EARN THE WIN.
WITH THE WIN, CODY PUNCHES THEIR TICKET TO WEDNESDAY’S TITLE GAME APPEARANCE BUT FIRST HAS A REMATCH VS. TORRINGTON TODAY AT 4PM AND YOU CAN TUNE INTO KODI FOR ALL THE ACTION.
IF CODY WINS TODAY THEY PLAY THE WINNER OF CASPER/DOUGLAS IN THE TITLE GAME AT 11AM WEDNESDAY. IF CODY LOSES TO TORRINGTON TODAY THEY PLAY WEDNESDAY AT 1:30PM FOR THE STATE TITLE.
