The Clippers never trailed during Monday's doubleheader against Sevastapol on U102.1 in Sturgeon Bay. The first of the two games would be closer than the second, which ended after the fifth. Sturgeon Bay jumped out to a lead in the bottom of the second when a Garret Ulberg double, back-to-back singles by Curt Meyer and Trey Vanderleest, and a Sac fly by Dom Tristani put three runs on the board. Sevastapol would answer with two runs in the third when Chase Haberli and Frankie Deyoung would have RBI singles. However, Sturgeon Bay would blow things open in the bottom half of the inning, sending ten men to bat and scoring five more runs. 

 

Game one entered the 5th inning 3-10, and after a 1-2-3 top of the inning, the Pioneers would send 13 batters to the plate, scoring five runs, capped off by a 2-RBI single by Harry Schartner, bringing the game to a score of 8-10 in favor of Sturgeon Bay.

 

After the game break, which included Senior Night honors, the Clippers bats stayed hot while the pioneers faltered. The Clippers blew the game open in the 2nd inning. Bryce Plzak hit a bases-loaded double, which brought home Meyer, Vanderleest, and Brusky. A 2 RBI double by Caleb Plzak in the 3rd and a 2 RBI Error in the 4th by the Pioneer defense add up the runs needed for the 10-run rule to come into play, but the Clippers added three more in the 6th for good measure, finishing the game 13-0.

 

The Clippers final regular season games will come Friday night in a double header at Kewaunee.

 

The Pioneers play a road doubleheader at Southern Door on Friday Night before wrapping up the regular season at home against Sheboygan Lutheran on Monday.
