Results – Round 11

BM Tigers 5 drew Corio 5

In testing conditions with strong wind and some rain, it was a tough day out for both teams.

Corio got off to a two-run lead after the second inning which was matched by Bacchus Marsh in the third inning. Corio matched this by scoring two of their own. After three innings Corio were ahead 4-2.

Bacchus Marsh then rallied in the fourth inning scoring 3 runs to hit the lead for the first time in the game, off some good hitting all round, with a hit each to Nathan Gell and Thomas Shaw and walks to Cooper Wallace and Shannon Hornstra.

Bacchus Marsh were ahead going into the last moments of the game, before a walk and a hit by pitch put two runners on base for Corio before one of them was battered in to draw the game.
