Bears turn Kelly "foggy"

Van Wade

The Orange Leader

LITTLE CYPRESS — It was a weird night at Don Gibbens Field, the Little Cypress-Mauriceville left the Kelly Bulldogs in the fog — literally.

The Battlin’ Bears piled up 12 hits, six for extra bases, to bombard the Bulldogs 12-4 in first-day action Thursday in the Don Gibbens Tournament.

The fog was intense for most of the contest, had a slight break in the middle and really got thick in the final two frames were more than half the hits came on outfielders not being able to see the ball.

First baseman Chad Richard led the Bear hitting parade, going 3-for-4 with a double and a triple. Third baseman Stefan Cloeren was 2-for-4 and drove in two runs while shortstop Chris Hearn belted a two-run home run.

Dallas Brown nabbed the win on the hill for the Bears, working three innings and allowing just one hit while striking out five. Aaron Milligan hurled the other three innings, allowing five hits, four of them fog-aided, and struck out one.

In other action at the tourney Thursday, the Crosby Cougars, coached by former West Orange-Stark standout Marcus Thompson, downed Kelly 10-6 and Hamshire-Fannett downed District 21-3A rival Hardin-Jefferson 6-4.

Today, Crosby meets H-F at 11:30 a.m., LC-M battles H-F at 2 p.m., Crosby faces H-J at 4:30 p.m. and LC-M tangles with H-J at 7 p.m.

On Saturday, H-F meets Kelly at 11:30 a.m.; Kelly takes on H-J at 2 p.m., and LC-M faces Crosby at 4:30 p.m. All the games are set for a two-hour time limit.

The Bears racked up four runs in the first inning off the Bulldogs.

Ben Jones drew a lead-off walk, swiped second and went to third on an error. Jake Rowell drew a walk and then Cloeren plated two runs off Kelly starter Charlie Jones with a sharp double off the left centerfield wall. Chad Richard doubled to right and then Tim Barry hit a grounder to second and the ball was overthrown at first, allowing two runs to score.

LC-M tacked up two more on the scoreboard in the second when Phillip Richard doubles to right and Hearn ripped a two-run shot over the left centerfield fence.

Two more runs came the Bears’ way in the third as Chad Richard walked, went to second on a sac bunt by Barry and scored on an Adam Leggett double to left and Leggett eventually scored on a Phillip Richard grounder that got booted.

LC-M scored its final four runs in the fourth. With one out, Rowell doubled to left and Cloeren drove in the ninth run with a single up the middle. After Chad Richard and Barry followed with back-to-back singles, Stefan Leger brought in the other three runs with a fog-aided single that rolled all the way to the right-field corner.

Kelly scored a run in the first when Doug Prewitt scored on a wild pitch.

The Bulldogs tallied two runs in the fifth on an Anthony Fazio single and a Tyler Falgout fielder’s choice. The Bulldogs tallied the game’s last run via an ear error the fog in the top of the sixth.

      Starting pitching has been shaky the last few weeks due to some injuries outside of Hagen Smith.  He goes tomorrow, so y’all should be fine

      West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin leaves Democratic Party, registers as independent

      By tvc184 · Posted

      Manchin may get it but any mention of the radical left that wanted to get rid of the filibuster and end almost 220 years of history because the Democrats are mad?  The House and Senate are obviously different legislative bodies with entirely different election processes and rules for a reason. The House can vote on laws with a simple majority vote. The Senate put rules in place that it would make it much tougher to pass laws. Laws should be difficult to pass. The Senate is often the holdup of the right and left. It takes 60 votes to break the filibuster so any law will almost certainly require agreement at least in part, from opposing sides of an issue. Because they can’t get laws passed, the radical left is like a baby having a tantrum and wants to change over 200 years of history and make it potentially ridiculously easy to pass laws. I have seen current poll maps and it is possible for the Republicans to sweep into complete power in November but by the tiniest margin. That would possibly mean that a single vote margin in both houses could enact what you might call the radical right laws. There would be nothing that the Democrats could do to stop any legislation whatsoever if the left (they are all radical, minus Manchin) got their filibuster rule changed.  That is where the current filibuster comes into play as any new law would require several Democrats to agree with the majority Republicans and vice versa.  Do you want the potential for your radical right to have free rein as the radical left wants by killing the filibuster or is the radical left just as (if not more) dangerous? Let’s see if we have a history in this area? Oh yeah, the Democrats changed the rules in the Senate to allow federal judges to not have to overcome the filibuster. Obama was not getting his federal judge nominations passed and being angry, they changed the rules instead of nominating more moderate justices. They were warned that it would come back to bite them. They didn’t care and chose the nuclear option to change the rules. Oops! Any guess how Trump got all of his Supreme Court nominees passed against strong Democrat opposition? The Democrats got rid of the filibuster for federal judges after another tantrum   So when you are so worried about the radical right, are you equally concerned in what the radical left is always doing by changing rules and history which were put into place just for situations like we are in? So while Manchin gets it, what about his other 50 colleagues (49 + Harris)?  What concerns you more, Abbott and Paxton or the Democrats who want to make it to where if the Republicans do take over, they can go wild… at least in your mind?

      MODS please remove that ISD twitter link! I had no idea it would copy the whole posting. I only highlighted the portion about the venue change. Sorry about that!
