NDNS87 Posted April 14, 2010 Report Posted April 14, 2010 How good is the Beaumont Enterprise? NOT VERY GOOD at all. They cant even get the fact of the game straight. Laird leads Nederland baseball to first in 20-4ABy RYAN S. CLARKApril 13, 2010Posted: April 13, 2010, 9:59 PM CDT NEDERLAND 3, PN-G 1 It shouldn't come as a surprise that a left-handed pitcher made the difference in Nederland's 3-1 victory against Port Neches-Groves. But the identity of the lefty might have surprised a few people. Nederland senior Cody Laird used seven strikeouts to help Nederland claim first place in District 20-4A. Laird has gone 8-0 in his first season as a starting pitcher. Nederland is 8-1 as it looks to win its second straight 20-4A title. PN-G, which is 7-2, is third in the district behind Vidor. Laird's role for Nederland has been important as the Bulldogs opened the season looking for a No. 2 starter after Josh Dean graduated last year. The role became even more important when Texas signee and fellow lefty Kirby Bellow returned to the team in March following surgery on his partially torn ACL. [b]Laird kept the PN-G offense at bay and didn't give up a run until the sixth inning when Blake Reyenga hit a RBI single to drive in Austin Stone, cutting the lead to 3-1.[/b] It was Laird's last inning as Nederland brought in Bellow, who picked up the save. [b]Bellow, who started at first base, scored the first run of the game when he came home off a Nick Cardenas double to center in the first.[/b] Nederland went up 2-0 in the third after Ryan Brady scored on an error and 3-0 when Tyler Smith scored on a walk in the fifth.First off it was [b]Knox[/b] that scored the run off of Reyengas hit not [b]Stone[/b]. And [b]Bellows[/b] hit a homerun to score the first run for Nederland not a double hit by Cardenas. Lets get the facts close before we start posting in the paper. Give these guys credit where credit is due.
Gabe Posted April 14, 2010 Report Posted April 14, 2010 Hey I put OF beat WOS 11-1 instead of 11-0 the other day. It happens, we hate when mistakes happen, but they do happen. It stinks in our line of work, 10,000 people read your mistake. We try our hardest to not make mistakes in our jobs but not a single person on this planet does not make mistakes.
lefty3162 Posted April 14, 2010 Report Posted April 14, 2010 Hey Gabe I appreciate any ink our teams get.Thanks for the hard work.Sounds like being a reporter ranks right up there with being an umpire.

Gabe Posted April 14, 2010 Report Posted April 14, 2010 Don't thank me LOL, I was there only to watch last night. I didn't write a thing last night! Feels weird to sit in the stands and not have to keep a book, even if I did get yelled at by a lady when leaving the bleachers!
