Bulldogs Bounce Back, Douse Devils in 2-AAA
Bearden keeps getting the timely hitting and pitching.
Jimmy Bailey, Jimbo Hodge and Todd Rechenbach came through with big hits and unbeaten Mark Snyder notched his sixth win, in relief, Monday as the Bulldogs edged Halls, 5-4, in the Region 2-AAA playoffs.
Bailey doubled home Mickey Snyder in the bottom of the seventh inning at UT’s Lower Hudson Field. Hodge tripled in one run and Rechenbach doubled home the tying marker in the sixth after the Red Devils had taken a 4-1 lead.
For Bearden, which will meet Farragut Thursday in the title game, it was win No. 23 against eight losses.
Mark Snyder came on in relief of starter Fred Grubbs in the sixth. After Ray LaBelle tripled to lead off the seventh for Halls, Snyder pitched out of the jam on a groundout and a double play as the Red Devils attempted to squeeze home the tying run.
Mickey Snyder walked to lead off the Bearden seventh. Greg Williams sacrificed and both runners were safe when the throw to second went into centerfield. Bailey then doubled on a 1-2 pitch.
Bailey’s triple. Neil Mary’s single, Hodge’s triple and Rechenbach’s double got the Bulldogs’ sixth-inning runs.
Halls’ markers came on Harold Carter’s RBI single that tied the game 1-1, another single and three-base error.
Grubbs retired the first 12 batters before Tim Arms singled to lead off the fifth for Halls.
Bailey, who has 11 hits in 13 at-bats in tournament play, led Bearden with three hits. Rechenbach had a pair of doubles.
HALLS...................................000 000 4 - 4 4 0
BEARDEN.............................000 103 1 - 5 9 1

Admirals Down Dragons
If it looked easy for Farragut’s Jeff Glover Monday night, then that’s probably because it was.
Glover handcuffed Clinton on four hits and struck out 15 Dragons as the Admirals won, 4-1, in the Region 2-AAA playoffs at Doyle. The 15 strikeouts are one shy of Glover’s season high, which he recorded three weeks ago in the Oak Ridge Invitational.
A run-scoring double by Bill Clements in the second inning proved to be the game-winner for Farragut. The two-bagger scored Greg Schwartz. The Admirals added a pair of runs in the fifth, one coming on a single by Craig Schnupp, the other on an error. For the game Schnupp was two-for-three with a stolen base and two RBI.
Farragut’s Pat Dorwin walked three times, stole three bases and scored two runs.
The Admirals (21-4) play Bearden Thursday.
FARRAGUT..............110 020 0 - 4 7 1
CLINTON..................000 000 1 - 1 4 0
