Fatty’s dropped games to Destrehan-based Valero-St. Charles, 11-7, to Lutcher’s summer team, 7-5, and to the Bayou area Southland Hogs, 6-1. But the team rebounded to notch its first victory of the summer over E.D. White on Saturday, 6-4.
“We came out and did what we wanted and expected to do, and that’s score runs,” said Fatty’s Restaurant coach Britt Waguespack. “We just had too much trouble on the mound to win.”

“We made a lot of errors in the field,” Waguespack said. “But it came largely from guys trying to step up at a new position. But offensively, we know we can hit, and it gave us a chance to be in every game at the end.”
A three run sixth-inning helped Fatty’s overcome a 4-3 deficit to notch its first win over E.D. White.
Four different Fatty’s players went 2-for-3 at the plate “ Tate Scioneaux, Ritchie Terrio, Austin Vicknair, and Ricky Johnson. Johnson led the team with two RBIs, while Terrio and Vicknair each drove in one.
Terrio got the win on the mound, allowing four runs on six hits. He struck out seven in six innings.
The Fatty’s defense had its best showing of the tournament, committing only two errors. Waguespack noted his team had committed nine over the weekend’s previous games.
