BAT CATS 6, KINGMAN 1 — Bat Cats pitcher Tyler Stuhlsatz (2-2, 1.94 ERA) threw 41/3 shutout innings in his best performance of the summer. Catcher Elias Leon helped Stuhlsatx by throwing out Korey Reese on an attempted steal. Club 1 Fitness Player of the Game Andrugh Yee led the offense with two hits and two runs batted home. "With the first pitcher, I wanted to get a pitch to hit, and slapped a ball to right field," Yee said. "My third at-bat, I stayed back and put a good swing on it." Great Bend (20-15, 19-13 Jayhawk) finishes 11/2 games behind Junction City (20-11) and Derby (20-11) for second place and missed a berth in the NBC Baseball World Series. The Bat Cats paid tribute to their supporters and host families in a brief postgame celebration. "Unfortunately our season is over, needing just one more W to go to the NBC World Series," said Bat Cats coach Roger Ward. "That’s the way it goes, We can say without hesitation this was a fine group of young men. They did things right, were active in the community and mingled among the fans old-and-young alike. They played their tails off every day. "This group is hard to watch leave, but we are going to do our best to get as many of them as possible back next season for Year 10." Peanut Brazzle doubled and scored on Kyle Walker's first-inning homer. Tony Moore singled in Carson Umphres for a 2-0 lead. Kingman's Nash Wray forced home L Clayton on a second-inning walk for a 2-1 score. Yee singled in Umphres in the third. Tyler Clementz singled home Logan Renken in the fourth for a 4-1 lead. Great Bend added single runs in the sixth and seventh innings. Yee scored on Renken's sixth-inning sacrifice fly. Umphres scored when Yee was hit by a seventh-inning pitch.
