A pair of Southeast Missouri State baseball players found themselves in familiar territory on Sunday but with a very, very different perspective.
Redhawk players Cole Warehime and Chance Resetich came back to Cape Girardeau and Capaha Field, this time as visitors, as they are playing for the Illinois Valley Pistol Shrimp of the Prospect League, and they tried in vain to knock off the home team at Capaha – for a change.
“Coming here, it is always my second home,” Resetich said. “I love this place.”
Resetich and Warehime had very productive afternoons at the plate, but it wasn’t enough to lift Illinois Valley to a second consecutive win over the host Cape Catfish, as another Redhawk player, Bryce Cannon, did his part to help the Catfish prevail 3-2.
“It’s super cool being back here,” Resetich continued.
Warehime had an RBI triple in the opening inning off Cape starter Blake Kincaid to put the Pistol Shrimp (10-6) up 1-0.
The Catfish (7-10) tied the game at one run in the fourth inning, as Cannon boomed a solo home run.
With the game still tied in the eighth inning, Cannon crushed another pitch, again over the right field fence, to put his team up 3-1.
In the Pistol Shrimp’s final at-bat, Resetich brought home a run with a ground out for the final margin.
Warehime tallied a pair of hits and an RBI while Resetich had one hit and an RBI.
Cannon finished with two hits, two runs scored, and three RBI while his Redhawk and Catfish teammate, Brooks Kettering, had a hit and a walk.
Wes Gingerich had a hit and a walk in the win while JJ Williams (one hit, one walk), Alex Kowalski (one hit), and Easton Moore (one hit) were also productive.
Kettering added a stolen base.
Kincaid threw three innings and gave up three hits and one earned run while walking none and striking out one.
Veteran Cape reliever Korey Bunselmeyer, who recently returned to the club after two years away, closed the final three innings and struck out five while walking one and allowing one earned run on three hits.
First-year Cape pitcher Drew Wedgeworth also threw three innings of middle relief and gave up one hit, no runs, one walk, and struck out a couple of Illinois Valley hitters.
Cape will host Alton (9-8) on Tuesday at 6:35 p.m. for Bark in the Park Night at Capaha courtesy of SKYVIEW Animal Clinic, so fans are encouraged to bring their furry friends to the game.
