Scrappers and Scrapperettes defeat De Queen in conference play

Nashville baseball and softball teams picked up a pair of conference wins Monday afternoon at De Queen.  In the baseball game, six runs by the Scrappers in the game’s 2nd inning, helped push them to an 8 to 2 victory.  It was the second straight conference win for the Scrappers.  Offensively, Kaleb Halter had a pair of hits and Kason Willard drove in a pair of runs for Nashville.  Scrapper pitcher Garrett Willard went five innings to pick up the win. He allowed just two runs on a pair of hits by De Queen.  He also struck out six Leopard batters during the game, while walking three.

At the softball field, it took the Scrapperettes a little over an hour to secure a 13 to nothing victory over the Lady Leopards.  Nashville pitching allowed just one De Queen hit in the contest.  Offensively, the Scrapperettes 13 runs came on 10 hits.  Nashville stranded 7 batters during the game.

Monday’s games were moved up a day to help avoid any weather related issues. 

Scrapperette coach Boomer Brown mentioned the Scrapperettes will be holding their annual Scrappazanza this Friday.

The baseball and softball teams next games will come Thursday, as both local squads have big road games at Bauxite.
