The ADM baseball team won its sixth consecutive ballgame last night–the Tigers beat Dallas Center-Grimes 12-7.

Coach Jason Book’s club got off to an incredible start in their win over the Mustangs, putting up 11 runs in their first at-bat.  In that first inning, the Tigers scored their 11 runs on seven hits.  Seven of those runs were scored before DC-G could record even a single out.

The Tigers led 12-2 heading into the top of the fifth inning and were trying to end the game via the 10-run rule, but DC-G extended the game with a five run rally.

Ethan Herron won his second consecutive start for ADM, as he went four innings and allowed two earned runs on six hits.  Herron struck out four over his four innings of work.

For the second straight night, the Tigers had three guys with multiple hits in the game.  Grant Goeden went 2-for-3 with two RBIs and a run scored.  Logan Essy was 2-for-4 with a run and an RBI.  And then Robby Sloss, hitting clean-up last night, went 2-for-4 with two RBIs and two runs scored.

ADM has the weekend off before hitting the road Monday to take on conference foe Ballard.  The Tigers, now 10-4 on the season, will play six games in five days next week.
