Coffee win 9 8 in 8 - someone from Coffee or Lebanon needs to describe the last inning - a little on the wild side

 

 

My bad guys, I got a little too carried away but heck I just couldn't help it. Jeremy Estill on second advance to third on a ball in the dirt. Catcher's throw skipped away from the third baseman into left field and estill got up and came home to score. Final 9-8. Good job guys.

Jeremy Estill was lead off for Coffee Co. in the 8th. I believe it went full count. Fouled several balls off. Hit ball between short and third. Short had to go to his right to field it, but had no shot at throwing Estill out. With Estill at first, Sam Davis sacrificed with a bunt and moved Estill to second. With one (or two) out(s) a low curve ball bounced to the catcher and scooted away from the catcher just a little. Estill broke for third and the catcher retrieved the ball and threw to third. It was a low throw and the ball skipped off to left field. Estill got up from his slide and hustled home to win the game 9-8.

 

Several players contributed for Coffee Co. (Sam Davis 2 run HR; William Myers diving catch in left) but Jeremy Estill was the difference. He almost willed Coffee Co. to the win. In the 7th with two bunt hits and no outs, the third batter of the inning bunted too. Estill hustled after the ball, bare handed it and fired to third for a bang bang out. He came in to relieve Bryson Davis in the 2nd inning and went the distance--calling his own game.

 

Coffee Co. seemed a little shell shocked at the start of the game but settled in nicely when Estill came in to pitch. The team seemed ready despite some distractions over the weekend. I thought the team was well prepared and Coaches Jones and Browning played good strategy and made good decisions during the game.

 

Lebanon was a tough team top to bottom. Coffee Co. was fortunate to be playing at home and get the win.

Great win Coffee Co. One win away from the state tourney. Keep battling.

 

 

Binns,

 

Were you at the game? I was sitting down third base line and it appeared that the home plate umpire had an obstruction call on the last play at the plate. Did you see him make that call or did I see something wrong? What association were they assigned from?

    • I believe that was last year. I was interested in the Jones vs Baker comment, so I went back and looked at GC. I am not a fan of either nor am I a baseball guru. This looks like to me the duel was not close and if the errors would not have been made Eagleville would have won. I assume you are a little biased. I do think your mph for Jeffcoat and Baker must be from last year.  Baker-85 pitches 67 strikes. 5.2 innings, 5H, 1BB, 0ER and 7K's. 3 errors  Jones- 78 pitches 37 strikes. 4 innings, 2H, 5BB, 0ER and 1K. 1 error   Adams and the UH kid are really good as well. What about South Pitt and Oakdale? I heard they have some good ones. 
    • I hate this for all the kids in the program and fans alike. I can't recall of anything like this before in my lifetime but I'm sure it isn't a first. After criminal investigations are complete and the TSSAA looks into this the program it will be facing Nuclear Winter for some time to come. It's always the innocent left behind that end up paying the price for something someone else has done. I'm sure the transfer portal will be very active in Clinton over the summer months. How could you find a good coach worth his salt that would take on a situation like this not knowing what will happen. 
    • I’ve seen Jeffcoat in person twice and he was 84-87 both times and the one time I saw Baker he was low 80’s, he actually got out dueled by Jones from ER in that outing.
