Wildcats Perfect in Win over Pioneers

Matthew James was essentially untouchable at West Varsity Field in a 10-0 five inning win over the U-High Pioneers.  James fanned 14 of 15 batters he faced, blowing fastballs by them and buckling knees with the breaking pitch.  The only exception was a 3rd inning routine grounder to third base.  The victory upped the Wildcats’ record to 11-4.

The offense got on the board in the 1st inning when Alex Jefferson led off with a walk, moved to third on a Kyle Vaughn base hit and scored on Adam McGinnis’ RBI double down the third base line.  After Wes Sery drove in Vaughn with an infield ground out, Adam Seifert laid down a bunt for a hit that scored McGinnis.  In the 2nd, Trey Rogers, returning from a broken thumb, got aboard on an infield error before Jefferson and Vaughn singled to load the bases.  McGinnis brought two in with a double and Sery drove in two more with a double to left center.  In the 3rd, Ryan Speller led off with a single before Jefferson blasted a two-run homer to left.  Vaughn not aboard on error, moved up twice on wild pitches and scored on Sery’s second double of the game.

Jefferson, Vaughn, McGinnis and Sery led the Wildcats with two hits each.  Sery had four runs driven in while McGinnis had three and Jefferson two.

The Wildcats are scheduled to return to action tomorrow against Decatur Eisenhower at Stephen Decatur middle school in Decatur.
