Bobcat Softball and Baseball Face Waterloo East 6/10
Last night the Marshalltown Bobcat baseball team brought a 16 game losing streak to the diamond. They had a doubleheader against Waterloo East, and game 1 went similar to the previous 16 games, the Bobcats lose 6 – 3. Zander Stupp pitched game 2 and was phenomenal, he pitched 6 and 2/3rds innings only allowing 1 hit and 1 unearned run. He struck out 7 and surrendered 1 walk. Stupp’s performance set up the struggling bobcat offense to only need a few runs. The game went to extra innings tied 1 – 1 and in the bottom of the 8th, pinch runner Bennett Ricken scored on a wild pitch giving the Bobcats the victory. That moves their record to 2 – 17 on the season. They are set to face off against Ottumwa at home on Wednesday this week.
