Drew and his Holly Bronchos teammates finally got a chance to kick off their fall baseball season this afternoon, after missing the opening weekend when their opponent backed out of the league.

Things were looking good early for the Bronchos, as they scored three early runs against the Foutch's team, their opponent in both games of today's double-header. Some quality pitching and defense shut down the opposition when it was their turn to bat, and Holly held a 3-0 lead after the first inning.

The second inning was another positive one for the Holly team, as they expanded their lead to 4-0 thanks to a run scored by Drew, after he drew a walk in his first at-bat of the game. A stolen base got him to second base, and a hit by a teammate moved him over to third while loading the bases. He came in to score on a bases loaded walk. Unfortunately that was it for Holly, and the rest of the game was all Foutch's. They scored two runs in the second inning to narrow the game to 4-2 before shutting Holly down in the third and fourth innings. Foutch's scored three runs in each inning, grabbing the lead and adding to it. When the game reached it's time limit, Holly had suffered an 8-4 defeat in the opening game of the Greater Flint Baseball League Fall Season.
