Midtown had to settle for second on Thursday, but Sam Dempsey sure wasn't going down easily. Dempsey pitched six innings while giving up three earned (and four unearned) runs off seven hits. The effort also marked the fewest walks (zero) he has had since back in March.
Even though Dempsey couldn't lead Midtown over Northside, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday. The Knights will be headed into this one with a sizable disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 194 places lower in Georgia), but they're not letting that get them down. Will they be able to pull off an upset behind Dempsey? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other baseball content.
