Vaughn Pitches Wildcats Past Ironmen 5-1
Kyle Vaughn handcuffed Normal Ironmen batters for seven innings, leading the Normal West Wildcats to a 5-1 victory over their crosstown rivals. Vaughn ups his record on the season to 5-0 and the Wildcats move to 12-5, 2-0 in the Big 12 conference. Vaughn allowed only four hits and a pair of walks against four strikeouts, finishing strong by getting the last seven hitters he faced. The Wildcat outfield was busy, hauling in ten fly balls on fairly routine plays.
The Wildcat bats put together a big 2nd inning and that was enough. Jacob Birlingmaier got things started with a ground ball that went for an error. Erik Sipes then doubled down the left field line, scoring courtesy runner Brandon Zwaga. A Wes Sery line drive single to right put runners on the corners. An errant pickoff throw to first allowed Sipes to score and Sery to go all the way to third base. Adam Seifert singled up the middle to score Sery and after Kyle Vaughn and Michael Collins walked to load the bases, Brock Stewart lifted a sacrifice fly to center. Jason Cullen capped the scoring with an RBI single.
Sipes and Seifert led the Wildcats with two hits each, while Stewart, Cullen, Sipes and Seifert had RBIs.
The Wildcats resume league play on Saturday at Mattoon with a 10:00 AM doubleheader against the Green Wave.
