Fillies win over Rock Falls |
The second game of the New-Mor-Roc-Ster turned out to be an eleven inning marathon that ended with Freshman Ashley Patten firing up the Fillies with a ruled triple to lead off the inning. The hit started a rally that led to three runs. Micheale Vock came up with a bases loaded grounder between short and third for the game winning RBI. Jodi Medendorp put the icing on the cake with a two RBI line drive to left. This was all pitcher Monica Wright would need to close out the game. The visiting Fillies went three up three down in the first. Wright took care of the first two Rock Falls batters then walked two only to get the next batter out with her second K. The second and third looked almost the same for both teams. Wright struck out four and Tresenriter striking out two. Wright walked in the fourth and M Vock moved her to second with the SAC bunt. The inning ended with Katie Tenboer grounding out to third. Tresenriter led off the bottom with a triple to right on a change-up that hung a little on Monica. Anderson then hit a fielders choice to Abby Vock, second base, who took it home to the waiting Jodi Medendorp for the out. Anderson advanced to second on the play but was left standing when Wright recorded two more K’s. Brit Smith walked to start the fifth and moved to second on the SAC bunt by Cassie Hanson, but that was all the Fillies could come up with that inning. Wright struck out two more and Abby Vock took care of the ground ball. In the sixth Abby reached on an error at short and was moved to second by Wright on the SAC bunt, but again that was all the Fillies could get. Tenboer, Wright and Abby played good defense for the three outs in the bottom half. Tenboer had a shot to center only to have Meier make a nice catch battling the setting sun. Medendorp slid a grounder down first only to be left standing when Hanson was called on a close third strike after an eleven pitch battle to end the seventh. Wright struck out the side to send the game into extra innings. Both teams had three batters step up to the plate in the eighth only to be sent back with good pitching and solid defense on both sides. Wright led off with a walk in the ninth only to be left when Micheale popped up to second, Tenboer and Smith both went down swinging. Clark led off with a grounder to right for Rock Falls and was able to steal second. Tresenriter took the walk. Anderson hit a fly to the gap in right only to have Smith make a excellent catch and a perfect throw to third to hold the runners. Nailor put down the bunt and Tenboer turned to third only to have Tresenriter slide in safe. With one out and bases loaded Korby Paul lined back to Wright and Monica gave the Fillies their first double play to Micheale at third. The Fillies drew a sigh of relief but went three up , three down in the tenth. The bottom of the order for Rock Falls did the same. Ashley Patten drove a liner to the corner that was touched by the right fielder and rolled out of play as she crossed the plate at home. After a brief discussion and a poor explanation the play was ruled a triple for Patten. Abby Vock put down the bunt, Monica also bunted. Not wanting the run to score Rock Falls held Patten to third. With no outs, bases loaded Micheale Vock came up with the game winning hit and RBI that scored Patten. Katie Tenboer hit into a fielders choice that took Abby out at home. Jodi Medendorp stepped in and drove one down the line in left that scored Wright and Vock while they were trying to make the play at first. Cassie Hanson grounded out to second after another ten pitch battle. Micheale Vock made a nice leaping catch for the first out in the bottom half, Jodi Medendorp made the next out on a foul pop up behind the plate, Tresenriter walked for the fourth time as Monica was working the corners.
