2024 Ruthlandian Elite 8 Series

Roosters Beat Rattlers With 4 HRs
The bats are really booming in Middlefield, where the Roosters pounded 4 more homers and won for the third straight day to go up in the Ruthlandian Elite 8 three games to two... Middlefield has gone deep 14 times in the series... The Roosters only got 8 hits, but it was enough to subdue Sugar Valley 7-5 in game five... 3B Stu Butterfiedl slammed two of them with 1B Allan Stewart (.421) and C Rod Buckley (.400) getting the other two... LF Marty Beckett (.333) sparked the Rattlers with 2 doubles and 3 RBIs... PH Craig Howell (.250) got the only homer for Sugar Valley... the Rattlers jumped off to a 2-0 lead in the opening frame, only to see the Roosters rally and take the lead 4-2 after four innings... by the top of the fifth Sugar Valley had come back and tied the score at 4-4... Middlefield scored 3 in the fifth to take a 7-4 lead, which they never relinquished... Middlefield starter Glenn Tackett (1-1 7.94) claimed the win, but struggled... Tackett was battered for 5 runs and 7 hits in 6 innings... Super relief work by Alec Bacardi and Waylon Hillman nailed down the victory with 3 scoreless innings... Johnny Kingsberry (0-1 10.50) caught the loss as he was shellacked for 7 runs in just five frames.

Szymanski HR Gives Vipers 5-4 Win In 12th
In game five at Westerner Field, Teddy Szymanski's twelfth-inning home run gave the Valmara Vipers a 5-4 victory over Waleska and the lead in the Ruthlandian Elite 8 series three games to two... Valmara won despite being outhit 15 to 9... CF Szymanski (.316) led the Vipers at the plate with 3 hits... PH Fred Flint also rifled one out of the park... CF Roy Hobbs (.350) paced the Westerners... Ivan Guzek (1-0 0.00) blew the save with an unearned run in the 11th, but got credit for the win... Rick Durham (1-1 1.79) was the losing pitcher... he relieved starter Sammy Grimaldi with one out in the tenth... Szymanski's decisive homer came off Durham.
