No. 7 Braves silence SA (04/27/04)
Local Roundup
The offense disappeared Monday for the South Adams baseball team. But there was a good reason.
The Starfires managed just three hits and no runs, but it came in a 5-0 loss to the Class 3A No. 7 Bellmont Braves.
Bellmont (10-2) scored once in the second inning, once in the fourth and three times in the fifth. The runs supported an outstanding effort from Aaron Rumple, who won the pitchers’ duel against South Adams’ Aaron Givens.
While the Starfires managed just three hits, Givens limited the Braves to five hits. However, he gave up five runs — four earned — in six innings as he took the defeat.
He struck out four batters and walked one.
Kyle White doubled for South Adams, and Kyle Neuenschwander added a stolen base. Michael Yoder and Ton Van Gelder each had hits in the defeat.
The Starfires (6-7) will host Adams Central Tuesday at 4:30 p.m.
