All things considered, the Bartlesville High School varsity baseball team had little reason to hang its head after Thursdays 6-2 loss to the Bishop Kelley Comets. <\/p>\n
For one thing, Kelley scored four of its runs on two swings of the bat a three-run homer by Riley Smith and a solo shot by Phillip Scott. <\/p>\n
For another, Kelley is the returning Class 6A state runner-up and returned everyone from last years 17-11 season. <\/p>\n
We didnt take advantage of a couple of opportunities, especially early noted Bruin head coach Spence Rigdon. Theyre (the Comets) a very good team. <\/p>\n
The Bruins squandered their biggest chance in the bottom of the second. <\/p>\n
With one out, Garrett Meidl and Logan McNeill ripped back-to-back singles. <\/p>\n
But, Meidl was then retired on a fielders choice at third and the next batter flew out. <\/p>\n
After falling behind 3-0, the Bruins finally uncorked a rally in the fourth inning. <\/p>\n
Gage Gardner led off with a walk and Meidl reached on an error to open the inning. <\/p>\n
Gardner then scored on a balk and Chandler Holliman grounded out to plate Meidl and cut the margin to one run, 3-2. <\/p>\n
