Bulldogs Shut Out In Gower, Lose Early Lead In King City
Gallatin’s high school softball team had a rough start to the week, falling 7-0 at East Buchanan on Monday and 5-3 in King City on Tuesday. The back-to-back losses dropped Gallatin to 10-9 overall on the season.
Gallatin wasn’t able to do much on Monday in Gower as East Buchanan kept the Bulldog lineup off balance all night. The Bulldogs would not score a run in the loss as East Buchanan cruised to the victory.
Gallatin opened its match-up with King City with a literal bang, how-ever, as Betty Rogers blasted a two-run home run in the top of the first.
King City got one run back in the bottom of the inning, but Gallatin pushed the lead back to two runs with a single tally in the third inning.
It would be all King City the rest of the way though as Gallatin was unable to push another run across. The host Wildkats, plated three in the fourth to go in front and then added an insurance run in the fifth to give the game what would be its final score.
Gallatin will look to bounce back on Saturday as they compete in the George Scurlock Memorial Tournament in Princeton.
