Timpson Bears Baseball Complex, Tuesday, March 26, 2019 –
On Tuesday, the Timpson Bears varsity baseball team overcame the visiting Joaquin Rams, in a District 23 2A game, by a 14-0 score. The Bears only allowed a single hit, a double by Eli Huerta in the first inning. Joaquin would eventually have four more base runners who reached on two errors and two walks.
Bears Garrett Askins, Braden Courtney, and Gabe Smith teamed up to strike out seven Rams batters during the 4 ½ inning contest which was called due to the conference’s ten-run-mercy-rule.
Timpson drew 10 free bases, and reached on eight hits, including a towering grand slam by Cody Hodge in the fourth inning.
The Bears are currently in fifth place in District 23 action with a 4-3 win-loss record. Their season mark is at 8-7. They next travel to Garrison for a district game with the Bulldogs on Friday, March 29, 2019 at 6:30 p.m.
Joaquin is in sixth place in conference play. Their league mark is 2-5 and they stand at 2-9 overall. The Rams will host the Martinsville Pirates on Friday, March 29, 2019, at 6:30 p.m.
