ENID, Okla. Tanner Lingenfelter gave his grandfather Butch an Enid assistant coach and grandmother Ruth Ann Lingenfelter a pretty nice 43rd anniversary present Monday in Enids District 6A-3 game against Tulsa Kelley at David Allen Memorial Ballpark. <\/p>\n
Lingenfelter was 3-for-3 with two bunt singles, drove in a run and scored a run in front of his grandparents, who were presented flowers before the game. <\/p>\n
However, it wasnt enough for the Plainsmen (3-8, 9-17), who dropped a 6-2 decision to the Comets (7-4, 14-8). <\/p>\n
It was cool seeing them getting the flowers before the game, I was pumped, Lingenfelter said. It was a close game today. We plan on getting them in a couple of weeks. <\/p>\n
Todays scheduled game between the two teams in Tulsa has been moved back to May 3. <\/p>\n
Lingenfelter also was involved in one of the key moments of the game. <\/p>\n
The Plainsmen, down 6-0, appeared to be ready to threaten in the fourth. <\/p>\n
Christian Voitik reached on an error and scored after singles by Braden Rogers and Lingenfelter. Voitik came home from third when center fielder Ryan Martin bobbled Lingenfelters hit. <\/p>\n
Tanner Fore flew deep to right. Kros Bay followed with a sharply hit ball that unfortunately for the Plainsmen, struck Lingenfelter for the third out, ending the rally. <\/p>\n
You dont know what would have happened if the ball hadnt hit Tanner, said Enid head coach Bill Mayberry. If the ball wasnt hit awfully hard, that doesnt happen. That happens sometimes in baseball. <\/p>\n
