Baseball is known as “a numbers game.” and the numbers were “eye opening,” at the Morrison vs Monmouth-Roseville game, on Monday, April 17, 2023.
Numbers that catch your eye are: 44 (runs scored by Monmouth-Roseville); 31 (hits collected by Monmouth-Roseville); 11 (base-on-balls received by Monmouth-Roseville); 10 (errors committed by Morrison); 0 (runs scored by M-R in the third inning.)
The ten-run rule graciously ended the game after three and one-half innings, with the final score 44-0 in favor of the host Monmouth-Roseville Titans.
Morrison: 0 – 0 – 0 – 0 = 0 / 1 / 10
Mon-Roseville: 16 – 28 – 0 = 44 / 31 / 0
