2014 Baseball May 24 vs. Fennville

The second game against Fennville was better for the Maroons both offensively and defensively. Josiah Coleman started scoring with a 2 RBI bloop single over the first baseman's head. Coleman went on to add the third run by scoring off of a wild pitch. Casey Meyaard continued the scoring by hitting an RBI single. After Meyaard stole second and third, he scored off Nick Hill's groundout. Mike Mokma drilled a ball to the left field fence that sent Nate DeZwaan all the way around to home plate. Two plays later, David Williams nailed a ball over the left field fence for his first high school home run. After two innings, Holland Christian was leading 8-0. In the fourth inning, David Williams made the score 10-0 by hitting his second home run of the game. After the top of the fifth inning, the game was called due to the mercy rule.
David Williams finished 3 for 3 with two home runs and four RBIs. Casey Meyaard also had a great game, as he went 2 for 2 with a single, a triple, and an RBI.
Josh York led the Maroons defensively by pitching all five innings, striking out 7 and walking 1. York also did not allow any hits, leading the Maroons to their second no-hitter of the season.

 After today's games, the Maroons record becomes 18-8. Holland Christian will travel to Hamilton on Saturday, May 31, as they play in the district tournament.
