Edgefield Xtreme Wins Again
By John Brown
web posted October 20, 2011
AIKEN – On a night better suited for
football than baseball, the Edgefield Xtreme would notch win number six
of the CSRA Fall League season Wednesday night with a 8-4 victory over
the Aiken Revenge. Edgefield would start the scoring in the top half of
the first inning when Hunter Cadiere would single with two outs and
quickly steal two bases to arrive at 3rd.
After Will Mottel would draw a walk, Jikeal Brown would single Cadiere
home for the games first run. With Mottel and Brown both in scoring
position, Josh Knight would step to the plate and drive a pitch into
left field, scoring both Edgefield runners and making the score 3-0. In
the bottom of the first inning, Edgefield pitcher Will Mottel would
handle the Revenge easily, facing only 3 batters. In the second inning
Aiken would push a single run across the plate after Edgefield
committed its only fielding error of the night.
In the Edgefield half of the third inning, both Reid Gossett and Hunter
Cadiere would reach on walks. Both players would eventually score by
stealing home to make the score 5-1 in favor of Edgefield.
Cardiere would then come on in relief of Mottel for the third and forth
innings and continue what has been total dominance from the mound
throughout the season. On the night, he would face only six batters
over his two innings of work, striking out 5 and getting the sixth
batter to ground out.
In the Edgefield 5th, leadoff hitter Reid Gossett would once again draw
a walk and quickly steal his way to 3rd base. Jared Bass would then
triple to deep left field, allowing Gossett to score. Bass would
then steal home on a passed ball, scoring his first run of the
night. Hunter Cadiere would then pick up his second hit of the
game, a hard hit single that would make its way through the
infield. Will Mottel would then step to the plate and drive a
pitch to the warning track of the 225' field, easily scoring Cadiere
from second. That would end the scoring for Edgefield making the score
Xtreme 8 and The Revenge 1.
In the final inning, relief pitcher William Prince would run into
trouble when he would issue walks to the first two batters faced and
then give up a base hit to the third Revenge hitter. All 3 Revenge
batters would cross the plate, making the score 8-4 Edgefield.
"I may have pulled William too quickly tonight but I've watched him
pitch for several years now and he just looked to be struggling from
the start. It was very cold and windy tonight and that's just rough on
a young pitcher," remarked Manager John Brown Jr.
Brown would then bring Jared Bass to the mound for the final 3 outs of
the game and the save. Bass would give up only 1 hit while being helped
out by his defense, with the best play coming from center fielder,
Jikeal Brown on a diving one handed catch to preserve the win.
The win moves Edgefield's overall record to 6 wins and 3 losses on the
season. Edgefield will be back in action again next Monday night
when they face off against the league leading Carolina Calypso.
