Lady Rebels Fall to Indians

Team FYN Sports

On the first Wednesday of the month, the Lady Rebels softball team traveled to Murray County to take on the Lady Indians. Fannin had just come from a tough one point loss at Dawson County the week before and was looking to add a win to their record.

The Lady Rebels were unable to make anything happen on offense in the top of the first inning where they scored zero runs. When they hit the field, they let their errors on defense get the best of them. Their energy was nowhere to be found as the Lady Indians took an early 3-0 lead to finish the first inning.

Fannin started to fight back on offense in the second inning where they were able to score two runs on offense and hold the Indians on defense. Fannin continued a trend for the night of scoring every other inning while the Indians scored in all but two.

The energy in the Rebels started to come alive in the fourth inning when their bats became hot. This was their biggest inning for the night where they managed to get four runs on the board and the Indians trailed right behind with three of their own. Murray County carried their big offensive inning into the fifth where they scored four more runs. Fannin was unable to do the same with their zero runs.

Maleah Stepp was four for four at the plate for the night and led the Rebels in hits. Not only did Stepp have four hits, but she also had three RBI’s. Amelia Sneed was in the circle for Fannin and struck out three batters over six innings. Out of all of Sneed’s pitches for the night, twenty-three of her first pitches were strikes.

After seven innings of play, the Lady Indians closed out the game with an 11-8 victory over the Lady Rebels. Fannin’s loss put their overall record at 4-8 while their region record remained the same at 2-3.
