Stump Leads Adams-Cheshire 10s to Tourney Opening Win

By Stephen DravisiBerkshires.com Sports
ADAMS, Mass. – Caden Stump got off to a rocky start for the Adams-Cheshire 10-year-old Little League All-Stars on Wednesday night.
 
He was rock solid the rest of the way, pitching his team to a 14-5 win over Dalton-Hinsdale in Game 1 of the District 1 Tournament.
 
Stump gave up two walks, a single, a double and two runs to the first five batters he faced at Beaver Bard Park.
 
He then caught a fly ball out and got a called third strike to leave runners at second and third and held Dalton-Hinsdale scoreless over the next three innings.
 
“He cruised from there,” Adams-Cheshire coach Marty Durant said of Stump’s performance through the middle innings. “That was huge for us. The bats came alive. That was nice.
 
“[Stump] brings that house league experience with him. He’s been pitching all year like this in house league. So, he may get a little rattled, but he settles right back down. And it’s easy when the bats come alive for him, too.”
 
Stump helped himself with a triple in the top of the first as the tournament hosts and designated visitors took a 2-0 lead.
