Warriors Lose in Extras to CC

WA Falls to Chicago Christian in Extras

The Warriors lost a heart breaker today to Chicago Christian, despite a solid effort from Trevor Swaney who went the who game but couldn’t pull out the victory. It was always a tight one from the beginning. The Warriors were up 2-1 in the fifth inning when CC’s 3 and 4 hitters went back to back to give the Knights the lead 3-2. The Warriors still trailed heading into the bottom of the seventh when Coach Brad Byrne called on pinch hitter Will Quiggle to pinch hit. Quiggle goes on to hit the game tying home run to dead center to tie it and send it to extras. Unfortunately Chicago Christian pulls out the victory by one in extras. Final score 4-3.

After the game I asked one of the coaches about the move to have Quiggle hit, “I am really glad for Wallace. I swear he must be a transfer or something. Is he new? Gotta be new. I am glad I even knew his name! Regardless a huge hit for our team.” I reminded coach of his real name. Good hit Wallace…

After the fourth the Warriors tagged on a couple of runs, after the Warriors batted father of player Jake Cousins runs on to the field. Confusion comes from the bench. I caught Mr. Cousins after the game to ask about the situation. “I just was feeling it! A big inning I was ready to play!” or something like that.

Warriors play Chicago Christian again tomorrow at Chicago Christian
