On Friday, the Alvinston
Indians travelled to Morpeth, and met a hot hitting
Morpeth squad, who put together several hits, en route
to a 10-3 victory. Alvinston jumped out to an early 3-0
lead, when Donald doubled in the first inning with one
out, and was followed by Chris Drew who traded spots
with Donald. Ryan Chapman then came to the plate and
crushed a two-run homerun, to put the Indians up 3-0
early. However, from there it was all Morpeth, as they
scored three in the second, 5 in the third, 1 in the
fourth, and 1 in the sixth, off of the lone Indians
pitcher on hand, Doug Charlton. Greg Guy spanked a
three run home run for Morpeth, which put them up 6-3,
which ultimately set the tune for the game. Greg Guy
was also the winning pitcher for Morpeth, and after the
first inning, he allowed only singles to Donald and Andy
Triest the rest of the way, as we was sharp on the
evening.
Alvinston's record is now 12-6, and they host Glencoe
on Sunday, in hopes of getitng back on the winning
track yet again. They are now in a heated battle with
St. Thomas for first place in the league.
