Campbell, Missouri - The Bernie Mules finished the season with an impressive record of 15-5. They fell in their final game to the Bell City Cubs who went undefeated and won the Campbell Fall Tournament championship.
The Mules weren't able to score. Bell City defeated them 6 - 0.
Austin Hicks got the win for Bell City. He pitched seven shutout innings. Hicks struck out 13, walked none and gave up four hits.
Alex Guzman ended up on the wrong side of the pitching decision, charged with the loss. He lasted five innings, walked one, struck out seven, and allowed five runs.
"Alex threw well for the mules but a couple errors cost a couple runs, and against a good team like Bell City they will make you pay for any mistakes," commented head Bernie Baseball Coach Marcus Massey. "It is not how I wanted to end the season but over all we have had a great fall season."
"We have a young group that hasn’t had as much field time over the last couple season due to the strength and numbers in the baseball program. So this fall has been great for them to get some games under their belts and kinda see where we are at for the spring season," continued Massey.
"But over all I really like how we finished up at 15-5. We have a good group of boys. We had won 8 in a row leading up to this bell city game, and beat some really good teams in the process. So if we can keep building I think we have enough pieces to put together a solid spring," stated Massey.
