Greeneville Flyboys News Release
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. - A phenomenal complete game performance by William Westbrock (Caldwell Tech CC) shut down the Greeneville Flyboys offense, as the Johnson City Doughboys finished the season series with a sweep, defeating Greeneville 7-1 on Thursday, July 14.
Johnson City (18-18) started right from where they left off from the first game of the series, as an RBI double in the bottom of the second inning by Isaiah Frost (Missouri) scored Matt Miceli (Stony Brook) to give the Doughboys an early 1-0 lead.
The Doughboys continued the offensive output in the bottom of the third with a two-RBI double by Scott Combs (NIU) to score Caleb Marmo (Walters State CC) and McKay Barney, giving Johnson City a 3-0 lead. Combs himself would come around to score later in the frame along with Michael Moss after a two-RBI single by Ethan Payne (Tennessee) to push the advantage for the Doughboys to 5-0.
Greeneville (16-21) got a run back in the top of the fourth after Alex Diaz (Cloud County CC) grounded out into a fielder's choice, allowing Myles Smith (UC Irvine) to score, closing the gap to 5-1.
In the bottom of the fourth, the Doughboys answered with an RBI single by Moss that brought home Barney, bringing the lead back up to five runs as Johnson City led 6-1.
An RBI double by Frost in the bottom of the fifth inning brought home Miceli, giving the Doughboys the 7-1 lead.
The Flyboys earned just three hits after the fourth inning, a pair of singles by Jack O'Reilly (Villanova) and Shemar Dalton (NC A&T) and a double by Andrew Pinkston (Northwestern) but no runners would advance past second base for Greeneville in the final five innings.
Frost led Johnson City, going 2-for-2 with 2 RBI, while Moss went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored in the game.
