Last week the DeQuincy Tigers hosted their arch rival Vinton Lions in District play, once again flexed, their muscles defeating their heated rivals in shut out fashion.
Grant Rainwater contributed big time with a solo homerun over the left field wall in the third inning as well as an RBI double at his next at bat to really put the pressure on Vinton and from there on, the Tigers just continued to pile it on!
Turner Rodriguez was 2-2 with an RBI, Kahle Miller was 1-2 with an RBI, Bryce Dyson was 1-3 with 2 RBIs, Jeremy Gatlin Jr. was 1-4, Grant Rainwater was 2-4 with 2 RBIs, and Rowdy Griffin was 2-2.
Turner Rodriguez was fantastic on the mound in all 7 innings only allowing two hits and walking one batter while not allowing a single run and recording 7 strikeouts.
DeQuincy 8, Vinton 0
