FBC won their third straight Kid Pitch baseball game in a weather-shortened contest on Wednesday, May 27, 2009, as they defeated Lee's Famous Recipe 7-3. Their record now stands at 4-5 for the season.
Donovan Ferguson picked up his sixth RBI in the last 2 games as he had an RBI single in the second inning and an RBI groundout in the fourth, both times sending teammate Joseph Rader home safely from third base. It was after the fourth inning was completed that the game was called following the third break in action as lightning was seen flashing in the distance.
FBC broke up the game in the second inning as they batted around, scoring the maximum 6 runs per inning. Drake Jeffries led off with a single up the middle and then stole second, going in standing up. Dalton Stephens drove a 3-0 count into right that scored Jeffries, and Stephens went to second on the throw. Dalton Armes followed with a single into left field, driving in Stephens for the second run of the inning. Michael Brown and Joseph Rader both walked to load the bases, and Brayton Sparrow smacked a 1 strike pitch into center field that scored both Armes and Brown, making the score 4-0. Leadoff batter Donovan Ferguson hit a single into short right field for his first RBI of the game. Trevor Edwards walked on a full count in a good at bat as he fouled off 2 tough pitches before coaxing the free pass, and Damien Ferguson hit a double into center field to drive in younger brother Donovan for the sixth and final run of the inning.
With Donovan's RBI outburtst over the last 2 games, he now leads the team in runs batted in with 8.
The team's next game is this coming Monday evening.
