Bees fall in a heartbreaker against Libertyville

Henry Stried was dominant on the mound again, striking out 13 in the Zee-Bees loss to Libertyville. One of the two hits allowed led to the Bees' demise. After a strike-out, two walks, and a hit by a pitch, a double scored two of the three Libertyville runs. The Zee-Bees fought back in the bottom of the first with Dominic Diliberti reaching on an error by the 3rd baseman. His courtesy runner, Sean Sarzaba, was out at 2nd on a ground ball by Andrew Carlson. With two out, Stried hit a double down the right field line, putting two runners in scoring position. But the Zee-Bees rally came to a close as the Libertyville pitcher got Malachi Baartz to pop out to end the inning. The Zee-Bees fought back again with 2 outs in the bottom of the second with Ryan Dunne and Kaden Oatsvall drawing walks. Dominic Diliberti then singled to right field, however, Ryan Dunne was thrown out at the plate by the Libertyville right fielder. The Zee-Bees tried again to push a run across in the bottom of the 3rd when Rafael "Junior" Villalobos and Henry Stried hit back-to-back singles to bring Malachi Baartz back to the plate. The Zee-Bees rally ended again when the Libertyville pitcher struck out Baartz on three pitches. Libertyville pushed another run across in the top of the 6th, but Dominic Leith was able to work out of the jam. He would do it again in the 7th getting the final batter of the inning to ground out to Sean Sarzaba. The Zee-Bees tried valiantly to come back in the bottom of the inning but had multiple hard-hit balls by Diliberti and AJ Neargarder go right to the fielder. The Zee-Bees return to action on 5/10, traveling to Libertyville High School at 4:45 pm.
