Notable Recaps from Wednesday

Vestavia Hills (5) vs. Stanhope Elmore (4)
Vestavia Hills edged Stanhope Elmore 5-4 on Thursday, breaking a tie late to secure a hard-fought win. The game was tied at four in the bottom of the sixth when Walker delivered a go-ahead double to put the Rebels in front for good. Stanhope Elmore struck first in the third after an error brought in a run, but Vestavia Hills responded immediately with a four-run bottom half. Gavin Smith drove in a run with a double, Jacob Harris added a two-run single, and Luke Green followed with an RBI single to give the Rebels a 4-1 advantage. Stanhope Elmore rallied in the sixth, tying the game on a double by Wil Stephens, before Vestavia Hills answered in the bottom half to reclaim the lead. Wilson Szymela set the tone on the mound for the Rebels, allowing two hits and one run over five innings while striking out eight. Nick Williams was sharp in relief, tossing 1.2 scoreless innings to help close it out. At the plate, Jacob Harris led Vestavia Hills with two RBIs, while Wil Stephens drove in three runs for Stanhope Elmore and Jacob Tharpe paced the offense with two hits.

James Clemens (5) vs. Buckhorn (0)
James Clemens blanked Buckhorn 5-0 on Thursday at James Clemens High School, as three pitchers combined to spin a shutout. Tyler Lewis, Evan York, and Cal Duthu worked together on the mound to limit the Bucks to just two hits in the victory. The Jets struck first in the second inning when Matthew Evers drove in a run on a groundout, then added another in the third on an RBI single by Hudson Smith. From there, the pitching staff took over and kept Buckhorn off the scoreboard the rest of the way. Evan York earned the win in relief, tossing three scoreless innings while allowing just one hit. Tyler Lewis set the tone with two scoreless innings to start the game, and Cal Duthu closed it out to secure the save. Offensively, James Clemens collected nine hits, with Hayden Udovich and Hudson Smith each recording two, while Jesse Isensee, Will Congo, Hudson Smith, and Matthew Evers all drove in runs. Buckhorn was limited to singles from Lucas Hargrave and Daylen Woods, and despite playing clean defense and turning a double play, the Bucks couldn’t generate enough offense to threaten in the shutout loss.
 
McAdory (5) vs. Gardendale (3)
McAdory jumped out to a five-run advantage and held off a late push from Gardendale to earn a 5-3 win on Wednesday. Gardendale trimmed the deficit late with a run coming home on an error and another on a triple, but the Yellowjackets were able to close it out. Aaron Bailey was dominant on the mound for McAdory, striking out 14 batters while allowing just one hit and two runs over six innings. The Yellowjackets opened the scoring in the first and added to their lead in the third, getting an RBI double from Aaron Bailey and taking advantage of a Gardendale error to build the cushion. At the plate, Aaron Bailey also led the way offensively, driving in two runs and finishing 2-for-2, while Sawyer Pearsall set the table from the leadoff spot with three hits and two stolen bases. McAdory showed patience throughout the game, drawing six walks as a team. Gardendale’s offense was limited to a pair of hits, with Parker Robinson and Caleb Banks accounting for them, as the Yellowjackets’ pitching staff kept the Jaguars in check for most of the night.
 
Shelby County (3) vs. Holtville (0)
Shelby County continued to stay hot to start the season with a 3-0 win over Holtville on Wednesday, as two pitchers combined to throw a shutout. Nate Byrne and King Hunter worked efficiently on the mound. Runs were at a premium in a game dominated by pitching on both sides. Shelby County broke through first in the fourth inning when Skylar Smith singled to drive in a run, providing all the offense the Wildcats would need. Nate Byrne earned the win after allowing four hits over five scoreless innings, while King Hunter closed the door with two hitless frames in relief. Skylar Smith paced the offense from the seven spot in the order, finishing 2-for-2 with two RBIs. Shelby County also played clean defense, committing no errors in the victory. Holtville collected hits from Tyler Carney, Kory Duett, Gavin Russom, and Cole Parrish, but couldn’t string together enough offense to push a run across in the shutout loss.
 
Baker (4) vs. Elberta (0)
Baker secured a 4-0 shutout win over Elberta on Wednesday, as two pitchers combined to keep the Warriors off the scoreboard. Yadiel Orellano and Zane Mizelle handled the work on the mound, with Orellano finshing the game with a pair of scoreless frames. The Hornets struck first in the opening inning when Caden Zoltek singled to drive in a run, then added to the lead in the second on an RBI groundout from Gabe Amick and an RBI single by Kaden Horton. Zane Mizelle earned the win after tossing five scoreless innings, allowing four hits while striking out seven without issuing a walk. Yadiel Orellano picked up the save in relief. Baker’s offense was balanced, with six different players collecting a hit, while Gabe Amick and Caden Zoltek each drove in a run. The Hornets also applied pressure on the bases, swiping four bags, and played clean defense without committing an error. Elberta scattered four hits in the game but couldn’t generate enough offense to break through against Baker’s pitching staff.
