Summer Ball

Bombers relief pitcher Emens gets first start against Joplin Outlaws (digitalburg.com)
Opposing teams haven’t had much luck against Sedalia Bombers relief pitcher Jeff Emens over the last 17-plus innings he had pitched. Until Thursday night, he hadn’t given up a run in that span. For his efforts, he earned his first start.

The Joplin Outlaws had another rough night as the Bombers rolled to a 12-1 win at Liberty Park Stadium. Emens pitched seven strong innings to earn the win. He allowed one earned run on seven hit with eight strikeouts and a walk.

“Jeff’s done a good job of keeping the down in the zone with a little more on his fastball and it’s usually pretty effective when you’re throwing strikes and keep it down in the zone,” Kindle said.

With the season again ending for more teams over the weekend and summer ball fast approaching for some players, and already underway for most, it is important for each player to have a plan in place to get something accomplished in preparation for their return to school in August.

Summer can be vital for any baseball player’s development as it is the one time of year where each player can focus completely and solely on baseball on a daily basis
