Hunter Curtis was on the mound for the Dogs as they got their second game of the season underway against conference foe Cherokee. Curtis’ outing was all but perfect, pitching throwing all three innings of the shortened game while only allowing two hits and striking out four. The Dogs run ruled the Braves 15-0 in three innings.

The bats were hot all around for the Dogs. Preseason FYN Sports Player of the Year Dawson Hensely went 3-3 at the plate with three doubles and three RBIs. Payton McCracken was also a perfect 3-3 at the plate with 2 RBIs and a double. The Dogs collected 12 hits as a club.

Next up for Murphy is a game tonight against Hayesville. Hayesville and Murphy are both undefeated and most think that they will finish 1st and 2nd in conference, so this game will definitely be one to watch. Murphy hosts the Jackets at home tonight at 4:30.
