Jasper took a 2-0 lead in the first inning.  Then the bottom fell out for Jasper in the top of the second as Madisonville scored 6 runs.  Jasper kept clawing back (how does a Dog claw?) to finally tie the game in the bottom of the sixth.  Props to the Madisonville left fielder.  He robbed Jasper of several key hits on shoestring catches that had he missed probably would have blown the game open for Jasper.  Ditto for the Madisonville shortstop for some unbelievable plays.  Madisonville had a good team.  It just was not their series to win.

Now, Dogs, on to China Spring!

Jasper does it every year. Solid program.
