6A West is jumbled at the top. Wichita West finds itself in must win scenarios to even have a shot at hosting this year. The playoffs favor the top 4 teams, and currently the boys would have the toughest Regional traveling to Manhattan for the toughest matchups to have a shot at going to State. Here's a look at the current standings:
The Pioneers had no answers. They might have mustered 2 hits in an otherwise lackluster performance that included throwing errors and silent bats. The best threat came with vases loaded and 2 outs. Lurch got jammed at the plate but had enough power to clear the infield...only to gave the BC shortstop make a great diving catch to end the threat. Nico pitched well enough for the win: he just didn't have any offensive support.
Zeph battled tonight with 93 pitches and 5 Ks to spoil BCs thoughts of a sweep. In a change of pace move by Coach Hoover, he opted to throw his Ace game #2 tonight. Jeter had magical gloves behind him. Nico stabbed a fly foul ball and stopped a base hit and threw out the batter from his knees. After an error to start the top of the 7th by Robert, Brantly caught a liner with bases loaded and doubled off the BC runner at 3rd for some breathing room. Z gave up a 2 run bomb in the first for his most earned runs in a game since Spring Break. His ERA is still a stellar 0.83... A mark that will undoubtedly rank amongst the greatest pitching seasons in Pioneer history.
The last month has been fully of highs and lows for a team with high expectations. Splitting games in GWAL has been tough, but parody in the league has left the door open for these baseball boys to somehow have a chance at league and improve their seeding for the 6A West playoffs. Jeter has had a season worthy of Hall of Fame numbers. Skylar has really tagged the ball well at the plate. We need to find more consistency all-around and get the entire team hot at the right time: that time is now... that uniform will only be worn a few more times. Go get it done, Pioneers!
