Riverside gets another quality win over AAA powerhouse Houston, 9-4! Panthers are on a roll!

Never mind, Riverside wins 9-4!

Riverside and Memphis Houston will play tonight at Liberty High School, how good is Houston?

I've never watched Lebanon play but i find it hard to believe anyone could win a championship with those type averages. The ERA's are high too, are these the top 2 pitchers?

Riverside keeps rolling toward the playoffs with 4 more wins this week. Capped by a 13-4 win over Camden and a 15-4 win over Henry Co.

Riverside beat TCA 16-5 Tuesday so i think they have #1 locked up. Not sure who's second TCA or adamsville?

Riverside booted it around a little today, but the bats were clicking!

Round one was no shocker and TCA didn't look as good as I thought they would. They threw it around alot, and made several base running blunders. Round 2 today, Gant going for the Panthers!

Well McGrath couldn't beat Fisher, it's almost time to see if TCA can beat Gant with their #2 man.

Riverside also beat Lexington twice in a row, they seem to be getting it right, at the right time!

On FIRE! Stephen Gant 3-1 record with one save, includes 2 shutouts and a perfect game! He's given up 3 runs so far, also hitting around 500 with 9 HR's. I'd say that's hot!!! entire pitching staff combined for 3 perfect games and another shutout last week, they now have 9 shutouts in 17 games...HOT!

Sounds good, I knew he had several!

That was actually the 3rd perfect game of the week for Riverside and the 9th shutout in 17 games! Gant also hit a grand slam in that game at MTSU. He now has a 3-1 record with 2 shutouts and has given up only 3 runs. The homer gave him 7 or 8 for the year.

TCA won't shock us (not saying they won't beat us) we know how good they are. I'd say you can look for RHS and TCA in the Boro this May.

Not under the radar, but most don't realize that Stephen Gant won't graduate until 2012. Ryan Fisher will also play college ball after 2012. Brandon McFall at Riverside is also a 2012 graduate at Riverside who's getting some attention. Alex Whitwell is a Freshman who is our starting catcher so i'd keep an eye on him for 2014.

He pitched a good game against Riverside, we won in 8 innings.

I'll also add since this isn't just a pitching thread, the home runs aren't down for Riverside. Gant, Clint Fisher, Brandon McFall, Alex Whitwell, Ryan Bivens, and Brice White all have homers. Gant and McFall have 5 or 6 each in the first 12 games.

Gant has pitched in 3 games this year: Waverly W 4-0 Adamsville W 11-1 Milan L 2-1 These were all starts and the only games he's pitched in so far. Bivens started against USJ and Keen came in.

Nolen Smith is really comming on for Riverside too! He pitched a 10-0 5 inning complete game over Hardin Co. and a 7 inning complete game shutout over South Side 2-0. He gave up 3 hits in one game and 4 in the other, no walks! He's Riverside's #3 starter so I think the Panther staff is in pretty good shape.

Does Clarksburg cancel their games with everyone, or is it just Riverside? I don't know why we continue to schedule them!

TCA 9 Adamsville 0

Adamsville is very good, Riverside needed 8 innings to win 5-3 last night. Both teams may well be in Murfreesboro again this year.

Still got some of the better hitters struggling right now, stay tuned and you'll see. Bivens isn't hitting YET, 8 and 9 spots are struggling, but will be OK. I know they scored a lot, but it will get better!

Panthers are looking pretty good for early season, still not hitting as well as posible but it is early.

Still some work to do, Panthers 20 Greenfield 3.
