Wildcats Fall to the Cyclones
The Normal West Wildcats lost 3 – 1 in a pitcher’s duel to Springfield SH Griffin at West Varsity Field on Thursday. Dustin Detweiler pitched well for the Wildcats, but one error plagued inning made the difference as the Cats’ record falls to 4-3 on the season.
Detweiler was the hard luck loser, pitching the first five innings and only giving up three unearned runs on six hits with two walks, a hit batter and three strikeouts. Ryan Speller pitched the last two innings, facing the minimum when his one walk turned into a ground ball double play.
The Wildcats only run came in the 3rd inning when Speller led off with a single and stole second base. A Garrett Cook ground ball caught Speller in a rundown between second and third, but allowed Cook to take second base. Alex Jefferson then singled him home. Adam McGinnis led the Wildcats with two hits on the game.
The Wildcats return to action tomorrow at East Peoria against the Raiders at Dave Rodgers field.
