Fairhope fell victim to Enterprise and their airtight pitching crew on Saturday. They fell just short of the Wildcats by a score of 2-0. The Pirates' loss signaled the end of their four-game winning streak.

Jerry McDowell spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered a run (which was unearned) on five hits and racked up nine Ks. What's more, he gave up only zero earned runs, the fewest he's had since back in February.

On the hitting side, Alex Herington was cooking despite his team's loss, scoring a run while going 3-for-3. Another player making a difference was Darren Leggett, who scored a run and stole a base while going 1-for-2.

Fairhope's defeat dropped their record down to 12-5. As for Enterprise, the victory (which was their third in a row) raised their record to 19-1.

Coming up, Fairhope will face off against Spanish Fort at 7:00 p.m. on Monday. As for Enterprise, they will take on Marbury at 9:00 a.m. on Monday. Marbury will roll in looking for their 13th straight win, something Enterprise surely won't give up without a fight.
