Bleacher Shots Baseball Quick Recap
Clermont might have counted in that first round but for some bad coaching at third. McCain’s stab of Vaden’s long drive to center in the second was a beautiful bit of fielding. The bleachers gave McCain a big hand when he came in. In the third Averitt stretched his single for three dags and Eddie could have scored if there was a peg. Hale chased his jinx and, in addition to two hits, showed sterling fielding at short.
