Generals suffer Braves beatdown

The Staunton Braves might still be on the outside looking in as far as the 2010 Valley League playoff picture is concerned, but they also still own the Waynesboro Generals.

The Braves blasted Waynesboro 12-1 Thursday night in front of 1,111 at John Moxie Memorial Stadium to post their 10th win in the last 12 games in the rivalry series.

It was done largely with small ball. Only one of Staunton’s nine hits went for extra bases, but the Braves stole 11 bases on 12 attempts.

Jarryd Summers (1-1) took the loss for Waynesboro, giving up four runs on two hits and six walks in six innings pitched.

Ben Alsup (4-0) picked up the win for Staunton with five and a third innings of shutout baseball.

    I got there in the 8th and yes I seen what happened but I promise we will get wins next week. Focus is the key to the success and once you open that door, never say die attitude and just take a deep breathe against these guys, then success will come back.

    I have noticed this year Staunton has stolen alot of bases against us, there is a way to fix that, focus and don’t hurry everything. I believe in the guys, I wish I could talk to all. Generals Sign Guy believes in ya and the fans do too. Go get em Generals!
