Friday night, there was a Richland Post 215 Program game as Richland Post 215 Gold AAA traveled to Camden Legion Field to take on Camden Post 17 AAA. Richland Post 215 jumped out to an early 4-0 lead in the top of the first inning. They would lead 5-1 after four innings. Then in the top of the fifth inning, Richland Gold put together a two out rally and scored ten runs in the inning. They went on to win the game 15-1 for their sixth straight win.

For Richland Gold, Luke Smoak led the way hitting wise, going 3 for 3 with 2 RBIs and 2 runs scored. Easton Ferrell went 2 for 3 with 2 doubles, 4 RBIs, 3 runs scored and a stolen base. Zach Nelson went 2 for 4 with a double, 2 RBIs, 2 runs scored and a stolen base. Dylan Williams went 2 for 4 with 2 doubles and a run scored. Kellen Moore went 1 for 3 with a double, 2 runs scored and a stolen base. Pitching wise, Tim Cole pitched a five inning complete game, allowing one run on two hits and striking out three batters. He threw only forty seven pitches and thirty two were for strikes.

Today. Richland Post 215 Senior plays in the South Carolina vs. North Carolina Invitational up at Keeter Stadium in Shelby, North Carolina. Keeter Stadium is the home of the American Legion World Series. In the first game at PM, Richland Post 215 plays Asheville Post 70 Senior in a rematch of their 2025 American Legion Southeast Regional game won by Asheville Post 70. Then at PM, Richland Post 215 Senior plays host Shelby Post 82 at PM.

We hope to see our Richland Post 215 family and friends up at Keeter Stadium up in Shelby today to root on our Richland Post 215 Senior team, the 2025 South Carolina American Legion Champions!

Had some good plays at shortstop this past game with @Monarchs803. Here’s an inning ending double play to get out of a bases loaded jam and then a good backhand play in the hole with a strong throw across the diamond!

This Memorial Day, we remember the men and women who gave everything for this country and the freedoms we enjoy every day.

Their sacrifice is bigger than baseball, bigger than sports, and bigger than ourselves.

At Richland Post 215, we are proud to wear the name of the American Legion and honor those who served and those who never made it home. 🇺🇸

Today we remember.
Today we are thankful.
Today we honor the fallen.

Grant Ramsey Info & Update from his family...

Yesterday the Hillcrest HC had a heart attack at school, shortly thereafter he was airlifted to an area Greenville hospital where open-heart surgery was performed & extended deep into the night.

His wife Megan shared this statement with us to pass along:
"Grant has made it through surgery. He is in critical but stable condition. The family is hopeful for a full recovery."

Coach Ramsey & his family need our continued prayers.

Baseball fam, you know what to do!
