Redlegs End 2019 on High Note

08/27/2020
 

Camden again poured on the offense in game two, again run ruling the Nightmare. This time it took 6 innings but ended with a walk off three run blast by Saige Micomonaco.

Jesse Jones took the hill for Camden in this one and turned in a terrific outing. Jones completed his first career complete game and was so close to his first career shutout, the Nightmare spoiled it in the 5th by scoring their lone run. Jones would end the day allowing only 3 hits while piling up 11 strikeouts.

After the Nightmare ended the Redlegs bid for another strong first inning with a nice 5-4-3 double play, Camden responded with an 8-run 2nd. Kevin Campbell and Mike Hartman each contributed 2-run singles. Matt Morrison, Jacob Robinson, James Robinson, and Jesse Jones all added RBIs as well. Jones also added an RBI in the 3rd to make it a 9-0 ballgame.

Kevin Campbell doubled to start the 4th and was later driven in by Matt Morrison to push the lead to 10-0.

The Nightmare then pushed a run across in the top of the 5th, but Camden responded with two more in the bottom half of the 5th. James Robinson roped an RBI single and Kevin Campbell later drove in his 3rd run of the game.

Now leading 12-1 in the bottom of the 6th, Camden pushed for the walk off run rule victory. Matt Morrison doubled to start the frame and was promptly knocked in on a single by Jacob Robinson. Mike Hartman then singled which led to a 3-run walk off bomb by Saige Micomonaco.

With the sweep, the Redlegs have earned the 3 seed in the playoffs and will take on the Wright Knights on Saturday, August 29th at Madison High School. Game 1 will begin at 1:00pm.
