Indians take advantage of Trojans miscues to win 16-1 in four innings

The East Coweta Indians took advantage of 10 walks and a number of other forms of wildness Tuesday night by scoring in every inning of a 16-1 four-inning victory at home over the Lamar County Trojans.
The Indians improve to 3-0 on the season and will face the Whitewater Wildcats at Thursday at 5:30 in a game scheduled for Wednesday but has been moved due to expected rain .
After starter Austin Bellamy retired the Trojans in the top of the first inning, the Indians gave him a lead in the bottom of the frame as Cam Smith led off with a walk and scored on a throwing error by the Trojans.
The Indians added two more runs in the frame as Matthew Meyer reached on a walk and scored in front of a two-run home run hit to right field by Jaquez Williams.
In the bottom of the second inning, the Indians added two more runs as Cary Holloway reached on a leadoff walk, stole second and came home when Devonte Brown reached on an infield error.
Brown gave EC a 5-0 lead when he scored from third on a wild pitch.
The Trojans scored their lone run of the evening in the top of the third inning as Jacob Efird reached on an infield single and advanced around two bases on groundouts before coming home on a triple by Josh Heflin.
A response was quick as the Indians added four more runs in the bottom of the inning as three of the first four batters reached on walks then Smith followed with a with a two-run single and after a two-run double by Meyer, the home team was in business.
After three innings in which he allowed two hits and a walk while recording a pair of strikeouts, Bellamy was replaced in the top of the fourth inning by Graden Treadwell who allowed a walk and a single but managed to retire three batters on strikeouts.
In the bottom of the fourth inning, the Indians sent 11 batters including four pinch-hitters to the plate while the Trojans used three pitchers who were unable to stop a scoring binge that yielded seven runs and brought an end to the game.
Williams led off with a double before Smith, Garrett Bean and Holloway followed with consecutive singles that resulted in a pair of runs coming home.
After a walk to Brown, Smith followed with a run scoring single  and Gemmel hit a two-run double to left.
After the first out of the inning was recorded by a strikeout, Nick Pippin and Mackenzie Martin reached base after being hit by pitches which resulted in a run before Austin Clay was walked to bring Gemmel home with the game’s final tally.
