The Cuero Record

This past week the Gobbler’ baseball team played in two games coming on March 16, in a double-header against Victoria St. Joseph at Riverside Park. In-game one, Cuero would earn the victory 6-2 behind senior, Will Davis. Davis pitched six innings of work, striking out four batters. Offensively, the Gobblers were led by Caleb Nagel and Jerry Rossett, each tallying three hits. Brandt Patek added two hits and two RBIs, while the seniors, Dylan Mills and Daelyn Sepeda, each drove in a run.

In-game two it was the senior southpaw, Rossett, on the mound. Pitching six innings strong, Rossett would pick up the win fanning a total of 12 Flyer batters during the outing. Kelton Dunn notched two hits, plating a pair of runs. Patek added two more hits and drove in a pair on the way to the 10-4 victory.

The Gobblers improve their record to 5-10, still a little less than three weeks away from district play on April 11. The Gobblers snapped a seven-game skid with this week’s victories. Cuero looks to continue its momentum this week when they travel to Hallettsville on Tuesday afternoon. The Gobblers will be back home this Friday, March 25, when they face the Somerset Bulldogs. The first pitch is scheduled for 7 p.m.
