Cane Cutters News

 TEXARKANA, Tx. (June 21, 2018) The Acadiana Cane Cutters spent the longest day of summer slaughtering the Texarkana Twins in a doubleheader at George Dobson Field. The Cutters swept the Twins with a score of 8-4 in Game 1 and 8-3 in Game 2.

Cutters’ shortstop, Trey Harrington (SE Louisiana) delivered a triple to clear the bases in the fifth. Cole Taylor (Texas A&M) also added runs to the board in the final inning with a double. Taylor was 3-4 with 3 RBIs in Game 1. The Cutters ended Game 1 with an amazing play at the plate. 

Pitching for the Cane Cutters was red hot with starter Joseph Battaglia (BRCC) and reliever Tyler Booth (LSUE) recording 1-2-3 innings in Game 1. Game 2 reliever Brayden Erbe (ULL) also recorded a 1-2-3 inning. 

The Cutters were not done getting hits, starting Game 2 with a two home runs off the bat of Chandler Morris (Texas A&M) in the second inning. Cole Secrest (Lamar University) would bring in run number five in the fourth with a single off the wall. Nathan Gabryszwski (Lamar University) was also 4-5 with three RBIs in Game 2. 

The Twins attempted a rally but failed to catch up to the Cane Cutters. Most runners for the Cutters throughout both games were the result of several walks delivered by the Twins.
