Hayden couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They took a 14-10 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Osage City Indians on Tuesday. Both teams can probably skip cardio this week after making that many trips around the bases.
For Osage City's part, Logun Fager made a big impact while hitting and pitching. He tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit (he also only allowed one walk). Fager was also solid in the batter's box, scoring two runs while going 1-for-4.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Cooper Parsons, who scored three runs and stole a base while getting on base in four of his five plate appearances. Another player making a difference was Kasen Parsons, who scored three runs while getting on base in two of his five plate appearances.
While Hayden had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair will be back at it again later today.
