Single A
Dodgers at Brewers
The Dodgers and Brewers met up for the second time this season. Luckily, the rain held off enough to see both of these teams put on a great show.
The Dodger bats were hitting up and down the lineup tonight. Allan Ard led the way with a 2-4 night with 2 huge shots into Left Field while scoring a big run in the 3rd. The Alsup brothers kept things going as well for the visitors by combining for 8 hits. Declan went 4-5 with a big double in the 1st, while his brother Garrett chipped in 4 singles while going 4-4 with a run scored and a RBI in the 5th.
Logan Seitz had another strong game in the field for the boys in blue. Playing shortstop in the 3rd, Logan had 2 of the 3 outs himself. After blocking a blistering shot to short, Logan made a nice throw over to 3rd for the force out. He followed that play by grabbing a hard line-drive for his second out of the inning. Aidan Dougherty was the other defensive star for the Dodgers. While taking the mound for the first time this season, he shut down the powerful Brewer offense with a well-pitched 5th inning.
The Brewer offense was led by Samin Bhalla and Sam Madden. Going a combined 5-5, these two accounted for 5 big singles and two runs scored for the home team. Sam’s blast to left field in the 4th also led to a big RBI. Samin and Travis Johnson pitched well for the Brewers. All of the Brewers played well tonight, but nobody out hustled Jesse Madden tonight. Just a great overall game from the Brewers.

Dodgers at Braves
The Dodgers and Braves battled it out on the field this past Saturday morning. There’s a lot of good baseball being played down at the Sports Park these days and this game was no exception.
Declan Alsup and Ryan Haley were the big hitters for the Dodgers this weekend. Declan went 4-4 with three singles and a clutch double in the 5th. He drove in two runs and crossed the plate 3 times for the visitors. Ryan had the hit of the game with a bases-clearing triple in the 3rd. He finished 2-4, scored two runs and added 4 RBIs.
Gio Cerutti took the mound for the Dodgers to start the 4th. He started off a little shaky, but quickly settled down. He retired the last two batters he faced, striking out one. On top of pitching a scoreless 4th, he also had a pretty good day at the plate going 2-3 while scoring two runs. JT Fulmer led the defense and continued his great work in the field. He caught a high fly ball in the 4th and made a number of great plays at 1st base. Not much gets by JT, one of the league’s best fielders.
The Braves played a great game this day and were led by Kade Ogden. He went 4-5, while scoring two runs. Rocco Morales and Jacob Martin were also big contributors at the plate for the home team. Rocco went 3-5 today with three singles, one of them being a huge shot to left field. He scored a run and belted in two RBIs. Jacob scored two runs for the Braves, going 3-4 with an RBI in the 2nd inning.
