POCATELLO — The Grays may have a better record than they did at this point a season ago, but skipper Trent Seamons still sees plenty of room for improvement.

Even after an 11-8 win over Hyrum on Tuesday at Halliwell Park, there are still various facets of Gate City’s team that need improvement. From pitching to fielding to hitting, the Grays just aren’t quite there yet.

But the fact they’re still able to put together solid performances and come away with wins means the Grays have plenty of room to maneuver as they fine-tune their game.

“It’s a process,” Seamons said. “We’re trying to build our confidence. We’re still seeing a little bit of hesitancy up at the plate. Everybody’s not as comfortable yet.”

The Grays may have plenty of room for growth, but that shouldn’t take away from the positives — the aspects Gate City is already pretty good at. With a mixture of veteran guys and Grays rookies, there’s talent throughout the roster. Trevor Bowers, who earned the start on the bump, fanned four batters in four innings before Matt Terry struck out three in two innings in relief.

Then there’s offensive weapons like Grays staple Gregg Simonds, who ended the night with a 3-for-4 effort with an RBI, and Grays newcomer Chase Teter, who hit a solo homer to left-center field to tack on an insurance run in the bottom of the fifth.

So it’s not like Seamons has nothing to work with. And, again, it’s not like the Grays are struggling to win.

They’ve just got plenty of potential to get better.

“We’re on the cusp,” Seamons said. “We’re almost to where we want to be. Luckily, this year we’re still putting together solid games. ... Last year we were kind of hovering around .500 most of the year. So I’m excited. When we come down to the end of the regular season, we’ll be right where we want to be.”

With a four-run first inning, Gate City was never in danger of giving up its lead. Cole Mansanarez, Simonds, Josh Holmes and Sean Persky all knocked in runs in the first frame, then Gate City continued to build on its lead with runs in every inning except the sixth.

Hyrum struggled to keep up until scoring three runs in the top of the fifth to narrow Gate City’s lead to two runs. Then Teter’s solo shot in the bottom half of the inning put the game away for good.

Gate City (9-3) will continue to build on its own potential in a home doubleheader Saturday against the Logan Royals.

“We’re still figuring out each other and getting used to each other as a group,” Seamons said. “We have a lot of potential, so it’s good. ... It’s going to start coming together a little bit better.”
