Sunday, the South, coached by Baker coach Dan Blankenship, defeated the North 7-6 and 5-2. The North edged the South in a single nine-inning game 9-4 on Saturday. Two former Bulldogs, Derek Blankenship and Matt Gorrell, were members of the South roster. In Sunday’s first game, Blankenship doubled, walked and scored a run. He played shortstop most of the game before pitching the seventh inning to gain the win on the mound.Gorrell was 0-for-2 while catching most of the game. In the second game, Blankenship led off the top of the fourth with a double that helped the South take an early 3-0 lead. Blankenship again played shortstop and Gorrell caught. Blankenship did not play Saturday because he was playing in the Class 4A basketball all-star series. (See story above). Gorrell caught the latter portion of Saturday’s game. |
