Manheim Township
(1) vs. Hempfield (0)

Game 2 of the The American Legion District 10 League Playoffs pitted MT against Hempfield.  Doing the pitching for Manheim Township was Pete Andrelczyk, and doing the pitching for Hempfield was ace Austin Hinkle.  Andy Dochterman started the first inning off for Manheim Township when he hit a double, however no one would be able to follow up and bring Dochterman in to score.  In the second inning, Shawn Keller reached first on an error by the third baseman.  Dane Yoder followed with a bunt that advanced Keller to second, however, the catcher threw the ball too high, resulting in the first basemen coming off the base and Yoder being safe on first.  With runners on second and third with two outs and Jared Ellis batting, third base coach John Dochterman made a crucial decision.  He decided to have Shawn Keller steal home.  Keller dashed for home on the pitch, which Hinkle threw over the catchers head, scoring Township's first run.  This would be the only run of the inning, and subsequently, the game.  Hinkle was able to hold Township at one run despite hits by Andy Dochterman, Dane Yoder and George Eager.  Pete Andrelczyk closed the game for Township by getting 3 consecutive batters out to advance MT and send Hempfield to the loser's bracket.  Township will play their next game this Saturday against the winner of the Ephrata vs. Lititz game.  Full bracket can be viewed HERE .
