Box Score

Jul. 9, 2009

Thirteen Cheyenne 11-year-old All-Stars contributed to an 11-6 victory over the Summerlin North All-Stars Thursday night advancing to Friday night action against the Lone Mountain All-Stars, 14-3 losers to Mountain Ridge. Game time is the same time... 7:30pm but this time on field 2.

After a scoreless first two innings Cheyenne jumped out to a 5-0 third inning lead. Key bats in the inning included a single and run scored for Jacob Radmanovich; a single, RBI, and run scored for Adam Mitchell; a single, two RBI's, and run scored for Jake Peeler; and an RBI double for Robbie Galvan. Summerlin North didn't like that. They retaliated with five runs of their own in the bottom of the third stanza to tie the game.

In the top of the fourth Cheyenne took the lead, 6-5, when AJ Gourrier stole home when the Summerlin hurler wasn't looking.

Cheyenne took a commanding lead scoring another five runs in the top of the fifth. Galvan led off with a towering home run deep over the left-center field fence. Then after Evan Lewis was hit by a pitch and Micah Higa and Nick Parr walked to load the bases, Radmanovich slapped a single between shortstop and third to score Lewis. Hayden LeCates picked up an RBI sacrifice fly scoring Higa. Mitchell doubled off the center field fence scoring Parr and LeCates.

Mitchell started on the hill for Cheyenne and threw extremely well. Mitchell recorded nine strikeouts, allowed just three hits, and picked up the victory in three and two-thirds innings. Parr then went to work for the next two innings allowing just one hit while fanning three. DJ Wyman came into the ballgame with two outs in the bottom of the last inning, yielded a hit, then recorded a strike out to end the game.

Cheyenne out-hit Summerlin, 10-5. Radmanovich, Mitchell, and Galvan picked up three hits apiece and Peeler had one.

Defensively, Anthony Golemme and Higa did a great job behind the plate, Radmanovich completed an unassisted double play, and Peeler made two great catches at second.

See you on the fields...
