The Southern Door baseball team looks to bounce back from a Friday sweep with a pair of games at Sevastopol on Tuesday.
The only offensive tally the Eagles would score in game one came in the 5th inning. Axel Anderson reached on a leadoff walk, and would be brought around from second thanks to a Collin Everard double the next batter. The Blazers however would get that run back in the top of the 6th, thanks again to a base loaded walk, scoring a runner that was put on via a HBP, giving the first game to the Blazers via a 4-1 score. The second game however would start more promising for the Eagles. Acting as the visiting team, Southern Door would strike right away. Colin Everard would double, Brock Delveaux would hit a RBI single, followed by a Caleb Guilette RBI single, and a Hoyt Austed RBI single to jump out to 3-0 lead that would be held until the third. In the third inning, each team had a walk that came around to score, with Axel Anderson coming across the plate on a Chase Massart RBI single, giving the Eagles a temporary 4-0 lead. The bottom of the 5th however would spell doom for the Eagles. The Blazers would send 9 batters to the plate, including a stretch of 5 straight batters reaching base. The Blazers scored 4 runs, overtaking the Eagles with the final 5-4 score.
On Parent’s Night in Algoma, the Wolves celebrated with a doubleheader sweep over Sevastopol on Friday, winning a pitcher’s duel 1-0 before holding off a late comeback for a 7-5 victory in the nightcap. Algoma claimed the opener in dramatic fashion when Braeden Leist delivered a walk-off sacrifice bunt in the bottom of the seventh inning to score the game’s lone run. Both teams dominated on the mound in the first game. Algoma pitchers combined for 10 strikeouts, while Sevastopol struck out 13 batters. In the second game, Algoma built an early lead and held on for a 7-5 win despite a late Pioneer rally. Bo Tanck led Sevastopol with two hits as the Pioneers totaled five stolen bases.
First pitch set for 4:30 p.m.
