Eagles dominate Blue Jays in baseball opener
On a windy afternoon, the Eagles traveled to Prinsburg on Thursday and dominated Central Minnesota Christian School in an 11-1 win.
Using timely hits and aggressive baserunning, the Eagles plated the 11 runs in just five innings. Going into the season, we knew pitching would be a strength for the Eagles and they didn’t disappoint, throwing a 5-inning no-hitter, striking out 10 Bluejay hitters.
Dylan Keimig led the game off with a walk and scored after Dyllon Gieser’s double got by the right fielder. Geiser later scored on a wild pitch for a quick 2-0 lead.
The Eagles added two more in the third after Davis Patzer doubled home TJ Mitchell. Patzer advanced to third on a single by Cael Benson and later scored on a heads-up baserunning play, scoring on a wild pitch that barely got away from the catcher. The big inning was the fourth when the Eagles pushed across five runs, using three walks, an error, and a two-run single by Landon Weber and an rbi double by Peyton Rademacher. Bradyn Danzeisen added an RBI pinch-hit in the fifth to finish off the scoring.
