Bulldogs Come Up Short against Grizzlies 3-2

O n Tuesday, March 10, the Cornersville baseball team made the trip to Battle Creek to face the Grizzlies in a non-district match up. It was a cloudy, but pleasantly warm evening as the boys stepped onto the beautiful turf field of Battle Creek. Although Battle Creek is a MUCH larger school than Cornersville, and a very intimidating campus, the Bulldogs held their own with the larger team. Hayden Cherry began pitching for the Dawgs. He, along with his fielders, started the first inning with 3 quick outs as 2nd baseman Jacob Courtemanche and center fielder Konnor Calahan made some very athletic catches to end the 1st inning of play. The Dawgs began the 2nd inning well as Ayden Campbell led off by getting on base and stealing 2nd base. Brady Jones then hit a big double to center field which allowed Campbell to come home for the first score of the competition. The Grizzlies answered with 2 scores of their own in the 3rd inning, and another in the 4th, while Cornersville got on base but struggled to bring any other runners home.

Bulldogs vs. Rockets: Rockets win 5-0

Friday, March 6, was another warm night for baseball as the Cornersville Bulldogs hosted their inner county rivals the Forrest Rockets. Coming off a win at Santa Fe, the Bulldogs knew that this would not be an easy match up. The Rockets are coached well and always play hard. Both teams started the match well. Colin Schillig began pitching for the Dawgs and the first inning was scoreless for both teams. The 2nd inning looked to be going the same until an error at first base advanced the Rocket runners to 1st and 3rd bases. The runner on third was able to score before the Bulldogs could scoop up a 3rd out. The Dawgs remained scoreless in the inning. In the 3rd inning, a carbon copy error was made and the Rockets added another run to their score. The game was a standstill from this point until the top of the 7th inning when the Rockets were able to add 3 more runs.
