The Fergus Falls 10U Otters baseball team kicked off their season Tuesday night with a pair of wins against the Rothsay Tigers.  

In Game 1 Isaac Jenc started for the Otters and tossed 2 Shutout innings.  They didn’t waste any time offensively as Kade Johnson started the game with a solid single followed by a walk by Jenc. Dexter Felstul put the Otters on the board with a solid knock to left, followed by a booming double by Gus Proudfoot.   The Otters continued the scoring in the 3rd- scoring 6 times with walks by Felstul, Frank Schierer, Proudfoot, Owen Johnson, Kade Johnson, Landon Noon, Jude Moline, and Hayden Heruth and with big hits by Kade Johnson, and an opposite field blast from Chase Johnston. Johnston, Moline and Schierer played a fine game behind the plate. Johnston also pitched 2 efficient shutout innings.  Owen Johnson closed it out for the otters who won by a final score of 11-1. 

Game 2 featured more impressive pitching performances by the home team.  Felstul pitched an impressive 2 innings needing only 10 pitches to strike out the side in the 1st.  Proudfoot pitched an effective 3rd inning followed by two shutout innings by Kade Johnson.  The offense was held in check for most of the game.  The Otters scored a run in the 1st with a walk by noon followed by another K. Johnson single.  Two more runs came across in the second with a Felstul double followed by a Johnston single combined with 2 wild pitches.  The Otters closed out the scoring in the 4th when Jenc led off with a single followed by another Felstul walk, Schierer hit a solid single to plate two runs. 

It was a solid all around effort and a great start to the season for the Fergus Falls team.  Everyone contributed in the wins.
