+++++What they are saying:Game-winning run scored by Nile Harris:“This playoff win means everything”….”I had to play it safe all on the way on advancing to third and then scoring the game-winning run”…A couple of walks and a Sacrifice had helped Nile Harris reach third base….He had been thrown out earlier in the game trying to advance from second to third….Harris also said, “This is a great group of guys here at Grimsley to go to bat with, we just have to stay focused.”….“For us to being to Round Two of the Playoffs, it just means The World”….As the game kept going on for more innings, all the way to the 13th, Nile Harris said he kept thinking, “We have to end this somehow”…..
Grimsley winning pitcher Gus Hughes said, “Our starting pitcher C.J. Neese did an outstanding job, I just had to come in and keep it like it was and not let Page score”….On if he got stronger as the game went on, Hughes said, “I got more under control and was able to do my job and was to be able to help Grimsley get the win on the mound, I wasn’t providing much help at the plate”….On if he could go again on Saturday, Hughes said, “No, I threw 64 pitches tonight and with two days rest, I don’t think I can pitch again on Friday or Saturday”… On beating Page, Hughes said, “This is huge/very big, this is the first time we have defeated Page twice in the same season in a long time, and it feels great.”
Grimsley coach Gary Flynn said he was very proud of his team…Coach Flynn said, “We will go with Jake Bloss in the starting role at South Caldwell”, Jake is like our #2 starter and we use Gus Hughes more like a reliever.”….Coach Flynn said, “After a win like we had tonight, the adrenaline is flowing and we need to use this win to push us hard into Round Two at South Caldwell.”….Coach also agreed that, “This was one of the biggest wins in recent Grimsley baseball history”…..

*****Quite a game with Page at Grimsley tonight with a very large crowd on hand, and I’m the local Grimsley and Page fans will be talking about this game and remembering this one, for a LONG time to come….*****

Sounds like this was an interesting baseball game here last night:
SKYLAND – TC Roberson coach Eric Filipek had seen this scenario play out before.

During last year’s 4A state title run, the Rams trailed Grimsley 4-2 in the opening-round of the playoffs before scoring three runs in the bottom of the sixth-inning to survive a potential season-ending disaster.

On Wednesday, facing No. 23 Rockingham County in the first-round of the 3A NCHSAA playoffs, No. 10 Roberson (15-10) had to rally once again to save its season.

Trailing 2-0 after a two-run blast from Cougar sophomore Coby Ingle, Roberson scored three runs in the bottom of the fourth and held on for a nervous 3-2 win.

“Bottom line, at this time of you, I could go on and on about some of the things we could’ve done or needed to do, but we’re one better than them today and we get to keep on practicing,” Filipek said. “We’ve got to move on and continue to play for another day.”

The Rams will be forced to leave Buncombe County for its second-round game Saturday, facing No. 7 Jay Robinson (20-5). It’s unlikely they’ll have another home game this postseason.

+++++Looking back at that Dudley-Crest game from last night and from Doug Powell with the Shelby Star News:+++++
Crest, positioned as the N.C. High School Athletic Association 3A west state playoffs’ No. 1 seed, needed four-plus innings to finally kick its offense into gear.

Scoring eight runs in the fifth and sixth innings, the Chargers finally came to life at the plate and aided a one-hit shutout from pitcher Riley Cheek in a 10-0, six-inning win over No. 32 seed Greensboro Dudley on Wednesday at Crest’s W.E. Halyburton Baseball Complex.

Cheek went all six innings for the Chargers (22-2) and only got stronger as the game progressed. He struck out nine Panthers batters, including the side in the top of the sixth inning with a 7-0 lead.

Dudley only put one batter on base — its lone hit of the night, a single from Khairy Jenkins in the third inning. Jenkins’ single in the third was the first hit for either side, but he was picked off for the third out when he attempted to steal second base.

Dudley starting pitcher Sincere Dalton gave a normally high-octane Crest offense fits from the mound early in the game. Dalton didn’t allow a hit in the first two innings and gave up just four in 4 1/3?s innings of work while striking out four.

  1. I had the opportunity to attend the Dudley /Crest baseball game last night. Although the score does not indicate it this was a 2-0 game in the 5th inning. My hats off to the Dudley Baseball program and their coaches. Starting several freshmen and missing several starters they were much better than what I expected. Coach Larry F, Stokes and staff do a wonderful job. They do not not receive enough recognition or credit.

  2. Lost of info on last night’s games here for you….Jump on board and dig in….
