Shelby Electric Swings Big Broom



After having to settle for a split on Friday night, Shelby Electric Coop zapped both their opponents on Monday, pulling out the big broom for a sweep.

SEC beat Macari’s in the opener, 16-4, after six innings, then almost skunked a red hot County Market team, 21-1, in game two. Macari’s bounced back from the game one whooping and smacked the Grocer’s in the mouth early for a 16-8 win.

Shelby Electric scored early against Macari’s to get a cushion, then rallied in the fifth to finish them off on a walk-off home run. Macari’s got a single from Brandon Yoder in the first, but that was it and SEC came to bat.

Nick Danneberger led off the SEC first with a single. Jeremy Piper reached on an error, Kevin Ross singled and Chad Hawkins launched a sac fly with the bases loaded to score a run and take a 1-0 lead. Bill Hubbartt smacked a double to score a run, Jami Kaul singled in a run, Brian Allen singled in a run and Jack Kiley sac-flied in a run for a 5-0 lead. Tony Fox doubled and Gary Gritzmacher singled, but neither man could score in the Macari second.

Clint Hagan singled for SEC with one out in the second. Dustin Theiss singled, but was forced out on a fielder’s choice. With two outs Piper doubled Hagan home, but Danneberger was out at the plate, ending the inning, 6-0 SEC. In the Macari third, Garrett Seaton singled with two outs and Brandon Yoder went deep for a 2-run blast, cutting the lead to 6-2.

SEC left the bases loaded with no run in the third and Macari’s went scoreless in the fourth. SEC extended back to a six-run lead in the bottom of the fourth, when Blake Tucker led off with a single and Theiss walked with two outs. Danneberger reached on an error to load the bases and Piper singled in the two runs, 8-2 SEC.

Neither team scored in the fifth, but in the top of the sixth, Macari’s got those two runs back with two outs. Zach Brown singled to keep the inning alive and Tony Fox went yard to cut the deficit to four, 8-4 SEC. Macari’s was still in it, until SEC came to bat in the fifth. Then it was all over.

Kiley drew a walk and with one out Brad Hagan singled. Clint Hagan then drove in a run. With two outs and SEC leading by five, 9-4, someone threw the switch. Danneberger dribbled a base hit in front of the pitcher and a run scored. Piper lined a single and drove in a run. Ross hit a single and drove in another run. Chad Hawkins singled and drove in a run. The score was then, 13-4, with SEC needing three more runs for a 12-run lead, enough to pull the plug on the game.

Bill Hubbartt launched a pitch towards the space shuttle, driving in the three runs needed with a walk-off homer. SEC scored seven runs with two outs, beginning with a weak infield hit and ending in a 3-run blast. Hubbartt went 4-for-4 with a double, two singles and the walk-off 3-run homer.

Tony Fox was 3-for-3 for Macari’s with a double, a single and a 2-run homer.
