The Gibraltar/Washington Island baseball team will try to build on the momentum they started last week with a twin bill against county rival Sevastopol.
Since being swept by Kewaunee in a doubleheader, the Vikings have won six of their last seven games including a pair of games on Saturday. Aaron Brey set the tone in game one, striking out 11 over five hitless innings before Cam Munao closed it out with three more strikeouts in relief. Munao went 2-for-4 at the plate and swiped four of the team's 10 stolen bases. Wyatt Bultman led the offense with two hits and three RBIs, and Gibraltar drew nine walks in the 8-0 win. Game two was over early. The Vikings put up six in the first inning and never looked back in a 10-0 win over Bowler. Munao stayed hot, going 3-for-4 with a double, and Hobbs Emerson earned the win by tossing three scoreless innings with five strikeouts. Six different players drove in a run as Gibraltar spread the wealth with 11 hits and seven stolen bases on the day.
The Pioneers split a pair of games last Saturday against Sturgeon Bay to take a shine off of the Clippers' senior day festivities. In game one, Sevastopol rallied to take a 10-9 lead with a massive seven-run sixth inning, highlighted by a three-RBI double from Logan Schuh. Bo Tanck went 3-for-5 to lead the offense and Andrew Wiesner added two hits. But Sturgeon Bay answered in the bottom of the seventh when an error scored the winning run, walking off the Pioneers 11-10. Game two was a different story entirely. Chase Haberli tripled home three in the first and never looked back, tossing five hitless innings and striking out seven to earn the win. Schuh, Haberli, Tanck, and Reid LeClair each had two hits as Sevastopol rolled up 12 and cruised to a 13-0 win.
First pitch is set for 4 p.m.
