Monterey at Harrisonburg tour

HARRISONBURG, La. &045; The Wolves ended up splitting four games Saturday and lost their last game to Harrisonburg, 6-2.

The Wolves started out the day with a 1-0 loss to Harrisonburg, a 4-3 win over Oak Hill and a 7-3 win over Harrisonburg before losing to the Bulldogs in the fourth game.

The Wolves got no-hit in the first game and got a combined 15 hits in the other three.

&uot;We didn’t hit the ball all day long,&uot; Monterey head coach Hank Zizzi said. &uot;We weren’t disciplined at the plate. We didn’t adjust to the different speeds of the pitches. Our timing was off.&uot;

Centreville 10-4, Huntington 0-9

FERRIDAY, La. &045; It wasn’t all about the bats in the second game of the doubleheader for the Hounds. Defense and pitching was there in the second, and that wins ball games just about every time.

The Hounds made five costly errors in the first game to lose 10-0, but they made the plays in the second behind Bronson Rhodes to take the 9-4 win.

Rhodes struck out eight, went the distance and gave us two earned runs on four hits.

&uot;The big difference was we made plays,&uot; Huntington coach Michael McAnally said. &uot;The first game we killed ourselves. Bronson was great. He was able hit locate his curveball and throw his knuckleball for strikes. Will (Moak) threw great the first game. We just didn’t make the plays for him.&uot;

The Hounds broke up a 4-4 tie in the fourth with three runs as Zach Calhoun, Patrick Clayton and Austin Butler came around to score for a 7-4 lead.
