The ball wasn’t carrying on the cold, windy night but Reynolds drove in the tying and winning runs with “swinging bunt” singles down the third base line as KM won 3-2. KM edges Burns for first win m pre re PER KM pitcher Wil Sellers snags a pop fly in first inning of game with Burns Friday night at Lancaster Field. In Kings Mountain High’s first two baseball games of the season, Alex Reynolds provided the power with five hits, including three doubles, in narrow - losses to East Rutherford and Burns. In Friday’s home opener at Lan- caster Field, Reynolds’ big hits were two “swinging bunts” that provided the tying and winning runs in a 3-2 victory over Burns. Burns carried a 2-0 lead into the bottom of the fifth inning when the Mountaineers tied the game on a slic- ing double just inside the right field foul line by Daniel Barrett, an error on Wil Sellers’ ground ball to short, and Reynolds’ swinging bunt that barely trickled down the third base line for a single. Then, in the bottom of the seventh, a very similar play plated Zach Hegler with the winning run. Hegler had led off the inning with a walk and every- body was safe when Hegler beat the throw to second on Barrett’s hard sac- rifice bunt attempt back to the mound. The two pulled a double steal when Logan Stevens missed a third strike on another sacrifice bunt attempt. Burns relief pitcher Alec Bivins in- tentionally walked Wil Sellers to load the bases. Reynolds trickled another roller down the third base line . Bivins made a play on the ball, but dropped it as Hegler sped by him for the winning run. Reynolds also got the win on the mound as he was pressed into duty after starter Sellers felt a tingle in his elbow after retiring his fourth straight batter in the top of the second. Reynolds, who started at first, and Sellers swapped positions. Reynolds went the rest of the way on the cold, windy evening, throwing 96 pitches and surviving a couple of anxious mo- ments. Burns’ Caleb Burnham walked, was wild-pitched to second and scored on a single to center by Brandon Alexander as the Bulldogs went on top 1-0 in the third inning. Burns tallied an unearned run in the fourth to go up 2-0. A dropped fly ball ° in the outfield got the Bulldogs going and an errant pickoff attempt at first base allowed the run to score.
