Eagles Sweep Bayless
The Brentwood Eagles continued their late-season surge with a convincing doubleheader sweep over conference foe Bayless yesterday.
In game one, Adam Kobler improved to 5-0 as the Eagles pounded out 10 hits and breezed to a 13-0 win. Kobler allowed only two hits, while striking out ten batters and walking none.
In the nightcap, Kevin Smith took a perfect game into the 6th inning and settled for a nifty four-hitter as Brentwood won 7-1. Smith improved to 4-2, striking out eleven and walking one along the way.
Brentwood hit their high-watermark in victories with 11 and improved to 7-2 in Conference play. They've gone on an impressive 9-2 run since getting off to a rocky 2-6 start. Superb pitching, timely hitting and a stout defense have been the hallmark of this team all season. Coupled with a "never say die" attitude, this young Brentwood Eagles ball club has certainly shown that hard work and perseverence pay huge dividends!
The Eagles have clinched second place in the SCAA and have an outside chance to tie for the league title with Hancock.
Next up is a 3:30 district playoff game against Valley Park this Saturday at Brentwood Park.
