Good question…We know Avery Hodges got the win and we will have to check with Mike Ellis(Jamestown News) on that one and we will…..
Check back with us later on today….
Matt Horkey got the start for the Ragsdale Tigers on Wednesday vs. Rockingham County…
Here is the word from Mike Ellis at the Jamestown News:
Matt Horkey started for the Ragsdale Tigers and he went two innings. Gave up one hit, 2 walks, 5 K’s, no
runs. He looked good.
Ragsdale has two more games this week, @ Wheatmore today and Conley in
Wilson on Saturday. Trying to limit Horkey’s innings this early in the
season with two more games and then 3 games the next two weeks, 4 of them
Conference games.
