After three games played Team Phipps leads the Fall World Series 2-1.

Game 2 turned out to be quite the game - what started as a pitchers dual between Ryan Summers and Jonathan Smithey - ended with an epic two out rally to force extras with Team Phipps coming out on top 11-7 in the eighth inning. Its start was delayed two days due to heavy rain in the area.

Team Fehr jumped out in front early again in Game 2. Dylan Hight the second batter of the game hit a double to left center and was then driven in by Collin Klingensmith's one out single up the middle.

Team Phipps had opportunities to score in the first inning with bases loaded and two outs and then again in the third with runners on the corners and one out. Both opportunities were negated by Ryan Summers pitching his way out of the jam.

The score remained 1-0 heading into the fourth when Team Fehr was able to extend its lead to 3-0. CD White led off the frame with a single to right field, then Smithey got back-to-back strikeouts, following a Reid Fehr walk, both runners advanced on a dirt ball read and Brad Chronister came up clutch with a two run single up the middle.

Team Phipps immediately cut into the lead when Michael Conn led off the fourth with a walk and made his way into scoring position soon after. Koby Ketcher would deliver a two out two strike RBI single up the middle pushing the score to 3-1.

The game was turned over to the bullpen for both teams thenafter and the score would remain the same until the sixth inning when Conn turned around a two strike, two ball slider and sent it over the right field wall making the score 3-2. Team Fehr responded immediately in the bottom of the sixth scoring three runs on four hits. White led off the frame with a triple, and scored on a one out Matt Kennedy single. Then back-to-back doubles from Fehr and Nathan Norris would push the Team Fehr lead to 6-2.

In the top of the seventh it seemed as though Team Phipps would go quietly after the first two outs were recorded to start the inning. But after loading the bases Chaz Orr came up clutch hitting home run on a full count pitch to left field. That tied the score 6-6.

Seth Key was able to put up a zero in the bottom of the seventh to force extra innings. The game was then postponed until Tuesday due to darkness.

In the extra frame Team Phipps came out on fire. The innings were scheduled to start with a runner at second base and no outs. Conn worked a walk, Corbin Lill singled to load the bases and the Justin Murphey capped it off with grand slam to push Team Phipps in front by 4. It was able to add another run on a RBI single by Brayden Rodden to push the lead to 5. Connor Bell shut the door in the bottom of the eighth securing the series tying victory for Team Phipps.

Shortly after the five run barrage Game 3 got underway. It was a pitchers dual between Nic Swanson and TJ Mullins. Swanson went five innings allowing one run on one hit while striking out 10. 1Run 10K's for Team Fehr. Mullins matched Swanson going five innings with six punchouts and also only allowing a lone hit.

Team Phipps took the early lead on a two out error that allowed Cade Gonzales to score. Team Fehr responded quickly when White had a two RBI single with two outs up the middle to give Team Fehr the 2-1 lead. It would stay 2-1 until the bottom of the sixth when Chaz Orr came up clutch again with a solo shot to tie the score. After a two out walk to Phipps, Corbin Lill snuck a double down the left field line to give Team Phipps the 3-2 lead. Soon after Connor Bell doubled as well pushing the lead to 4-2. The two run lead would be enough for Cohen Bell to close things down in his second inning of work.

Game 4 will be played tomorrow at 2:30PM.
