Touney updates

Drew's tournament was cancelled because of rain Friday night but Kade's was still on. Kade started the first pitching with 3 up and 3 down with 2 strikeouts. Next inning the infamous strikeout get on first base error that seems to plague Kade. Catcher missed the third strike and just lobs it to first who boots it into the outfield which leads to unearned run #1. This was followed by 4 more infield errors that leads to a 4-0 lead for the visiting team. But Kade only allows one earned run and 2 hits. The Longhorns lose the first game 5-0 and have to turn around and play back to back. Their next game was against Lewisville, Ar. This time we were the visiting team and started things off with a bang. Tyler Hutchings was hit and stole 2nd base where he was knocked in by Justin Goforth's single. Kade followed with a walk. Next up was Tanner "T-Dub" Wright who sent a shot foul about 400'. Pitcher made and error and threw the same pitch and Tanner politely tee off on it over left center field's fence for a 3 run bomb. We went on to win 5-1. This time we drew the Texarkana, Ar Rangers. Kade was asked to start on the mound again. He pitched a beautiful complete 2 hit game allowing only 1 run over 5 innings with 8 K's. Unfortunately we could only muster a run ourselves. This put us into the international tie breaking rule which puts a runner on 3rd with one out and each batter has a strike and a ball. We go first and fail to get a run. Texarkana plated the winning run with 2 outs on a passed third strike to win the game. It was a very emotional loss. Kade pitched awesome, as I always know, for 7 innings allowing 2 earned runs on 4 hits while striking out 13. I forgot to mention it was 45-47 degrees with the win blowing 15-20 mph all day. Lovely baseball weather. As for batting Kade went 0-2 walking 3 times, striking out once, lined out to center, and hit into a fielder's choice but scored 2 times.
