Mosquito Shield
Reds 11
White Sox 8

Report: The Reds beat the White Sox 11-8 in a great Mosquito Shield final.  The White Sox took a 4-1 lead after 2 innings with their pitcher Hunter striking out 3 Reds batters, but Reds pitchers Brent Behm and Luke Lawless held the White Sox batters scoreless over the next 2 innings allowing time for the Reds bats to wake up.  The Reds offense was led by Aidan Hutchinson who was 3-4 with triple and a home run, and Mikey Milne who was 3-3 with a double and a home run.  Chad Pedersen pitched 3 strong innings for the Reds striking out 6 White Sox batters, making a strong impression for a summer league team.  It was a great game to finish the season, and both the Reds and White Sox coaches thank their players and parents for making the season a great one.
