Victoria Generals News Release


Victoria TX - The Acadiana Cane Cutters came to Victoria to take on the Victoria Generals for a double header Friday evening. The record between these two teams heading in to Friday was 1-1.

The Cane Cutters got things started with a run in the top of the first inning with the RBI coming from Hunter Wood.

In the bottom of the first inning, a quick pitching change was made. Jesse Stallings took over pitching duties from Russell Reynolds. Reynolds gave up one hit and one walk in his time at the mound.

Justin Pacchioli found pay dirt with his second at bat of the game when he hit a drive in to right field and it looked like a routine out when the center fielder Connor Barron and right fielder James Ziegler collided with each other in the outfield. The defensive slip brought in three runs for the Generals and gave Pacchioli his 2nd home run of the season.

In the 6th inning, Scott Szush came in to pitch for Jesse Stallings. Stallings gave up three runs on six hits and had one strike out in his campaign at bat.

Bryce Welborn started for the Generals and almost completed the game, but was taken out after he allowed a single that brought in two runs to tie the game in the 7th. Welborn allowed three runs on six hits and struck out two batters during his time pitching. He was replaced by Troy Ward.

Just when things looked bleak for the Cane Cutters, Trent Giambrone came up to bat. He hit a double RBI single in the bottom of the 7th with two outs facing him to tie the game.

In the 9th inning Scott Szush was taken out in favor of Colton Lee. Szush allowed three hits and no runs in his time at the mound. He recorded no strikeouts.

The scoreboard would stay stagnant until the top of the 10th inning when Trent Giambrone had yet another big play, crossing home plate to give the Cane Cutters a one run lead.

Another pitching change was made by Acadiana heading in to the bottom of the 10th inning, going with Scott Ashford in favor of Colton Lee. Lee allowed no runs and recorded one strikeout.

The Generals were finally able to finish of the Cane Cutters in the 10th inning when Keith Funk sent Blake Cooper home on an RBI, then crossed home plate himself on a wild pitch.

Scott Ashford was handed a loss and a blown save, and Troy Ward hung on for the win. This was only game one of the double header.
