Shorecrest Chargers 1 - Calvary Christian 2

April 24, 2012

The Chargers were eliminated from the post-season in a heartbreaking pitchers’ duel loss to Calvary Christian. The Chargers were playing without leading hitter Jason K and outfielder Will S, and Andrew R was limited to DH duties, resulting in a revamped defensive alignment. Injuries have hampered the Chargers all season with January’s projected starting lineup never taking the field for an entire game, but the team never stopped battling.

Calvary scored without a hit in the bottom of the first on a leadoff walk, a sacrifice bunt, a wild pitch and a sacrifice fly. Shorecrest answered back in the top of the second on a single by Austin R, a walk to Avery C and an RBI single by Chris H to tie the score.

Calvary scored an unearned walk-off run in the bottom of the 7^th when their only hit of the game knocked in a runner from second.

Marc B was brilliant in his final game as a Charger, going 6 1/3 innings, allowing 1 hit, striking out 12 with only 2 walks, one of which was intentional. He retired an amazing 19 batters in a row from the 1^st inning through the first out in the 7^th.

Leading the offense for Shorecrest were:

Chris H with a single and an RBI

Austin R with a single and a run scored

Tim M with a single and a stolen base

Spencer H with a single

Andrew R with a single
