Concordes White finish home and away season on high note

In the final game of the Mount Gambier Softball League minor round it was an all Concordes affair.

Dana Jones started with a safe bat for United, but Karly Pearson then came back with two K2s.

A fielding error saw Dana Jones score and after a single to centre fielder by Julie Beck, the play was made at two for the final out for the innings.

White then started their batting innings with Sam Brown getting on base through an error and Rachel Bagshaw by base on ball.

Kylie Cook came up to bat and hit a double to centre scoring both Brown and Bagshaw.

A further two runs were scored before the innings ended.

At the top of the second Concordes White started strongly with two quick outs then Dana Jones came up for her second safe hit of the game, with a double to left field.

Sarah Thomson then had a safe hit to second, putting runners in scoring position.

Codie Jackway also had a safe hit to centre and two runs were scored for the innings.

Not to be outdone Concordes White came back at the bottom of the second, scoring six runs of their own, starting with a safe hit to Linley Pollard.

Then some disciplined batting saw runners load the bases before Bagshaw had a double to left field again sending runners home, as well as Maddie Sutherland before a line drive catch to Leonie McCallum ended the innings for White.

With two outs at the top of the third a double by both Jones and Thomson scored two runs before the innings was shut down by a play from Maddie Sutherland.

McCallum shared her class with her involvement in three plays for three outs only allowing White to score one run in the bottom of the third.

The start of the fourth saw a brilliant diving catch to Bagshaw and a quick three outs.

Whites lead off Kate Altschwager had a single to centre field followed by another single to Pearson scoring a further two runs.

Concordes White ran out the winners to their sister side 13-5.
