Mcguire for Gallatin/ Haynes for Smyrna- both threw 2 hitters

Its 1:45 and I am presently watching the weather--- It is talking about terrible storms in LavErgne/ Smyrna area. Will we still play bd???

Mickey Armstrong, for Gallatin, now has a 25 game hitting streak. He is hitting well over .500 for the year.

Beech hammered us 13-5. Gallatin is now 2-4 in the district.

This is definitely one of the classiest statements I have ever read. I could not agree with you more. Truly a great post.

Brandon Watson pitched for Gallatin and James Parker threw for WC. They both started.

GALLATIN 8 WILSON CENTRAL 6

Can someone please help me with this.??? Today we had a player miss a squeeze bunt, which left our baserunner hung out to dry. Our baserunner tried to stay in a rundown to advance our other runners. In doing so he ended up running into the catcher which had the ball. The umpire said he went into him with his arms up trying to dislodge the ball. The catcher was not at the the plate. He was in front of it. Our player was ejected for it. I understand it was a judgement call but the catcher ended up pushing him out of the way and hosing another base runner at 3rd. My question is how many games will our player be suspended for and does that only include varsity games. The umpire did not state maliciousness or unsportsmanlike conduct.

You are correct 4th and Goal, his brother was also an outstanding player. He graduated 2 yrs ago. I think that season the older one had 10 bombs, while baby brother had 15. I did say he hit a grand slam and a 3 run bomb last night. Believe me if we could have put him on we would have.

Sorry Joe, Im not Justin Pickett. I am from Gallatin. I suggest that if you dont believe what I am saying - drive to White House pay the admission and if you are not impressed with what you see, I will try to refund your money. I didnt even mention the fact that he pitches as well. He struck us out 11 times and gave up maybe 5 hits. Believe me- if you have been around the mid state area- you would know that Justin Pickett does not have to blow his own horn.

Justin Pickett has been starting for White House for 4 years. In those 4 years, I think we(GALLATIN) have gotten him out 5 times. Last night, I think we finally figured out a way that might could stop him. Last night we were fortunate enough to hold him to a 2-4 performance at the plate. Hey we got him out 2 times. The other 2 times he hit 2 400 foot bombs, one a grand slam and the other a measly 3 run homer. 2 HRS 7 RBI WOW The way to contain him------ I would suggest if you are playing at White House, you should put up tree stands in the trees behind the outfield fence only in the trees from gap tp gap. When he bats let your OF'S go sit in these tree stands. Odds are, if you pitch to him, you have a better chance to catch his ball this way. In all seriousness, this guy is some kind of player. I have heard people say well he has never hurt us----- just give it time. I have been around baseball for a long time and never seen a better player. I know his past history just like many others. If you are a pro scout, I am pleading to you to give this kid a chance. He is just flat awesome, and this is coming from another team Good Luck to evryone the rest of the season.

Prayers from Gallatin.

After losing a heartbreaker on Monday 7-6 to Lavergne, Gallatin bounced back TuesdaY with a 3-2 win over Wilson Central. Caleb Mcguire 5-0 pitched for the Wave against James Adkins for WC. It was another great 9-aaa game. Both teams had some two out hits, picked runners off at crucial times, and played great defense. Someone said the other day that Lavergne had the best outfield in the mid state or state. After last night, I will definitely second that. I dont know about their hitting but their LF and cf made at least 3 awesome catches that saved doubles. They tracked down everything.

Lebanon 3 Gallatin 3- not a shock to me. This is what makes our game so great, people. If you have a pitcher that is hitting his spots and the defense playing well behind him anything can happen in baseball. Lebanon totally outplayed us in this game. They came back to tie the score twice in the late innings. Coach Messer had his team ready to go, and the Lebanon P (Hutto) keep us off balance both at the plate and on the bases. The Blue Devil Defense also played very well. Their offense came up with some big hits and put the ball in play when they needed to. Hats off to Lebanon and their coaching staff. I felt very fortunate to leave that game with a tie. Baseball IS AWESOME. GO CHICAGO CUBS!!!!!

Gallatin- Andrew Ayre, Bo Cook, Caleb Mcguire, and Carlos Coward. All start. AYRE- , Cook, Mcguire- all hitting over .400

Thanks for wishing us luck eyeonu. We will certainly need some after the statement by Gtown. Unbelievable, that anyone would say that they can win 9-AAA with ease. We have gotten off to a good start: however we do know that District play is a whole different game. I would hope that the Bulls eye remains on MJ, Hendersonville, Wilson Central, and Lavergne. 3 of these teams have dominated our district over the last 4 years. Please do not believe that the whole Gallatin team is echoing the same sentiments as Gtown. Good luck to all.

chsbb16- Im not a radar gun. I just said what i thought. I said he was clocked at 88. Before I knew that, i thought he was probably throwing 85-86. No matter what, it was gas and he had a good change and curve too. As I said he flat shoved it against us. As far as me hitting off of him, I would like to bat against the Big Unit if I could. I was just trying to give the guy some recognition.

Wushy, Gallatin will play @ Lavergne on the first Monday, home vs. Wilson Central on Tuesday, and @ Smyrna on Wednesday. 3 back to back to back due to a tournament over that weekend that Wilson Central is in. District play is totally different than any other games. You can pretty much throw all records out the window. Everybody is gunning for everybody. Every game is usually tough.

I think one of their players said they were 5-1. The P, as already mentioned was dominating last night. They also had a catcher that had a good arm and could mash. Their leadoff hitter (Dunn) was extremely fast as well. I think their CF has signed to play somewhere as well. The catcher's last name was Kemp. The CF's last name was Carden. They seemed pretty solid. They were a big team with speed.

Gallatin will be playing in the Lookout Classic this weekend in Chattanooga, Wushy. We played in the Wilson Co. Invit. last weekend. For REDSMAN- Coach Martin would never blame a loss on his assistant coaches, especially one that thought he lost his keys and found them in his car door 45 minutes later.

Tennessee Tech got the Centennial P (Forst) at 88 last night supposedly. I think he was more 85-86.

Centennial beat Gallatin 5-0 on Wednesday. The Centennial P flat shoved it against us striking out 11 and walking 1. I think he scattered about 5 hits. His last name was Forst. He was dominating last night. Gallatin now 8-1 heading to Chattanooga.

yes, Gallatin's pitcher threw a no hitter . (Caleb McGuire was the P )
