McGhee allows only three hits in complete game shutout over Ridley

GLEN MILLS, PA- Big day for pitching enthusiasts as both pitchers finished what they started this afternoon.

For Ridley, Jake Mansfield did all he could to keep them in the game, as he went six innings, four hits, and only allowing one run. Despite the great performance, he was given the loss.

On Garnet Valley’s side, Ryan McGhee went all seven innings and allowing only three hits, taking home the win.

All it took was one first inning run from Garnet Valley to hold on and win, as Kyle Klein singled with two outs to drive in Nolan Carroll.

Both pitchers shut down the other team’s offense, making this one of the more intense pitching duels, as only one run and seven hits were allowed between the two teams combined.

Ridley falls to 5-9 in the Central League, and will likely miss the playoffs after holding a spot for a good bit. They will finish their game against Lower Merion which was postponed due to rain on Monday, tomorrow.

Garnet Valley, moves up to 9-5 in the Central League and is right on the border of hosting a playoff game. They were dealt a tough blow with a season-ending injury to Chris Schaller, but their pitching has really helped them out. They will play away at Lower Merion (10-4 in CL) on Monday at 3:45 to wrap up Central League play.
