Lady Rabbits give Henrietta a challenge
The Bowie Lady Rabbits lost a tough game at Henrietta on Tuesday night as they started the second round of district play.
The Lady Cats won 11-6 against as the Lady Rabbits were playing catch up after a tough first inning.
Bowie was coming off a win against City View and some extra practice time. The Lady Rabbits had gone 2-4 in the first round of district, though they had been dealing with some key injuries when it started.
The first game against Henrietta several weeks back had been brutal. Bowie had lost 13-0 after five innings due to run-rule and had failed to get any hits or baserunners on during the game.
Despite play being better recently, it looked like it would be a similar result after the first inning.
Besides the Lady Rabbits getting a base hit, there were little positives for Bowie.
The Lady Cats had six singles, drew one walk and a fielding error in the outfield allowed Henrietta to score seven runs in the first inning to go up 7-0.
The Lady Cats added to it in the third inning, with three singles and a double scoring three more runs to go up 10-0.
Heading into the fifth inning, Bowie needed to score at least one run or the game would end early due to run-rule again. Instead, the Lady Rabbits came back.
Unlike the first game, Bowie’s offense had some success up to that point, even loading the bases up in the second inning, but could not get any one home.
The Lady Rabbits found some success as they loaded the bases up with no outs. Serenity Klump then drew a walk to score the one run Bowie needed to keep the game going, but the team wanted more.
KP Rutherford hit a single to left field that drove in two runs. Two batters later, Sadie Britt then hit a groundball to the shortstop that induced an error that allowed another run to come in and score.
Bowie had cut the lead down to 10-4.
The Lady Cats got one of the runs back in the same inning with an RBI double to go up 11-4.
The score was the same heading into the final inning for the Lady Rabbits.
With two runners on base and no outs, Rutherford came through again with a single that drove in one run.
Sage Gossett then followed and grounded out to the second basemen, but it drove in another run for Bowie.
Unfortunately, the offensive magic could not keep going. Following a single, the next two batters were retired to end the game.
Henrietta won 11-6.
