Jasper batters Mustangs, 17-6

Van Wade

The Orange Leader

WEST ORANGE — Once they got within 6-5 of defending Class 3A state champion Jasper, the West Orange-Stark Mustangs woke up some sleeping Bulldogs.

Jasper exploded for five runs in the top of the fifth inning and added six more in the sixth as the Bulldogs went on to throttle the Mustangs 17-6 in six innings at Ronnie Anderson Park Monday afternoon in District 21-3A play.

The Bulldogs (13-3, 3-1) pumped out 18 hits, including 10 in the fifth and sixth innings to subdue the Mustangs (1-9, 1-3).

Jasper pounded out nine extra-base hits in the victory.

Bulldog outfielder Malcolm Bronson had the hottest hand, going 4-for-5 with a home run, a triple and two doubles and four runs batted in. Catcher Ty Parker was 4-for-5 with two doubles and a home run and four RBI while Justin Parsons went 4-for-5 with a home run, a double and five RBI.

The Mustangs took an early 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first. Justin Sparrow drew a leadoff walk and with one Clayton Gearhart reached on an error and Bubba Gearhart singled between third and short to load the bases. Sparrow was able to score when Cody Hodge’s flyball in shallow center was dropped.

Parsons tied the game in the top of the second when he hit a home run that rattled off the scoreboard then the Bulldogs added another run on a Mustang error.

The teams combined for nine errors with the Mustangs having five and the Bulldogs had four in tricky, windy conditions.

Jasper went up 5-1 in the third as Parsons had an RBI single up the middle and Parker Phillips, who was 2-for-4, added a two-run single to right.

The Bulldogs pulled ahead 6-1 when Bronson cranked a solo home run over the centerfield fence.

The Mustangs ripped off four runs in the bottom of the fourth to get back in it.

Taylor Bonin, who was 2-for-3, had a leadoff infield single and then courtesy runner Jarvis Jones swiped second and went to third on a wild pitch with one out.

Kendall Veitch followed with a walk. With two outs, James scored on a third-strike passed ball to Jordan Darnell to make it 6-2. Clayton Gearhart followed with a single up the middle to score courtesy runner John Jefferson. Bubba Gearhart then slapped a grounder to short and a two-run throwing error led Darnall and Jefferson to come it to score.

The Bulldogs sliced four hits to tally five runs in the top of the fifth. Cord Yates, who was 2-for-5, had a RBI single up the middle to make it 7-5. Bronson came up and crushed a two-run double to left. Parson would follow with an RBI single to right and Parker popped an RBI double to up the Bulldog lead to 11-5.

WO-S tallied a run in the bottom of the fifth. Chase Adams had a leadoff infield single and Bonin followed with a double to center. Adams eventually would race in to score off a Kendall Veitch sacrifice fly to left.

Jasper poured on six runs in the top of the sixth. Yates had an RBI single and Bronson followed with a run-scoring triple to center to make it 13-6. The Bulldogs capped the scoring as Parsons sliced a two-run double and Parker ripped a two-run bomb over the leftfield fence.

Bubba Gearhart started the game for the Mustangs, hurling four innings and allowing eight hits while striking out two and walking one. Bonin pitched 1 2/3 innings, allowing 10 hits while striking out one while Zane Anderson hurled 1/3 of an inning.

Yates tossed four innings for the Bulldogs, allowing six hits while striking out seven and walking two. Parsons closed the deal, tossing two innings while allowing one hit while striking out four.

The Mustangs will look to recover Thursday when they visit the Orangefield Bobcats in a 3:30 p.m. varsity start.

How about that Malcolm Bronson!  A homerun, a triple, and two doubles.  He might have hit for the circuit if he were not so fast.  The first double was in reality a single up the middle for average folks.  But the WOS CF played it casually perhaps like for a normal runner, and Bronson just zipped on to second when he saw that it was a soft throw back to the infield.  At least that is a paraphrasing of what I heard from the Jasper announcer.  ;)

Perhaps we can get him to change the scoring to a single and SB :)

I'm surprised Malcom didn't do just that--we have discussed it one other time.
