On Monday night, the Chesnee Eagles downed the Christ Church Cavaliers 11-7 in region play to keep pace with the Blacksburg Wildcats. This win means the Eagles have earned the right to host an opening round home game, whether that is as region champion or runner-up is still to be decided.
Chesnee got the scoring started in the 2nd inning as Luke Cash drove in two runs and Kobe Miller hustled to beat out a double play to score another. Joey Foos singled in a run in the 3rd to answer back after Christ Church scored two in the top of the inning. Christ Church would respond and Chesnee would enter the bottom of the 6th trailing 5-4. After a Dawson Williamson single, Nate Lamb quickly put the Eagles back in front for good to start a 7 run inning for the Eagles. Luke Cash had a solid night at the plate for the Eagles as he went 2-4 with 3RBIs. Nate Lamb also had a good night at the plate as he went 3-5 with a double and a home run and he finished with 2 RBIs. Kobe Miller also had two RBIs for the Eagles, and Jonathan Bishop went 2-3 with two runs scored and a RBI. With regular starters Nate Lamb and Colin Turner unable to pitch due pitch limits Chesnee turned to the trio of Bo Walker, Chase Carver, and Austin Brown to help the Eagles win the game. Chesnee Coach Scott Wease was proud of his pitching staff for coming through in a big game "proud of those guys they came in and pounded the zone and we have to make the plays defensively." Chesnee will travel to Christ Church for the final region game of the season. Currently Chesnee and Blacksburg are tied at 7-2 for 1st place in the region. Blacksburg will host Landrum.
