Friday night baseball saw Central play host to South under the bright lights of Blue Lake Sports Park. Ethan Chuck was given the job for Central letting big cousin Dylan rest his arm. Chuck didn\u2019t disappoint, and took the game by storm. Central had control of the game from the get go, with a four run first followed by a three run second. South battled hard and the future stars in Declan Habner and Tarkyn Morale lead from the front for the Indians but they just weren\u2019t good enough on a night that Central all but locked up the minor premiership with six weeks left to play in the home and away season. The final score was Centrals17 to South 6. Dylan Chuck was player if the game with four safe hits.<\/p>\n
Saturday afternoon it was Tigers v Federals and Federals looked on song early. Tigers coach Karl Ransom took the mound in what would be his 350th senior appearance in the orange and black.<\/p>\n
Federals got the first run of the game and held Tigers but Ransom was finding his grove on the mound. After five innings it was still close, Tigers were leading by just two runs but Jesse Foster and Matt Thompson we\u2019re about to click the turbo button and they blew the game to pieces with a four run sixth and and six run seventh to make the game a 13 to two ball game. Ransom finished the match with 16 strikeouts on the hill, whilst Jesse Foster and Alex Reppin had three hits each.<\/p>\n
