Glacier AA hits a skid
Whitefish Pilot | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 13 years, 10 months AGO
Steven DeYoung knocked a grand slam in
the second inning and finished with five RBI as Missoula dropped
the Glacier Twins in a AA Legion baseball league contest on June 10
at Memorial Park.
DeYoung’s two-out blast to center field
broke a scoreless tie.
Missoula pitcher Andrew Sopko held
Glacier to five hits.
“He’s one of the better arms in the
state,” Glacier coach Lindsay Fansler said.
“He was able to hold our bats
down.”
Jack Cronin finished 2-for-4 at the
plate for the Twins. Geoff Streeter, Cody Elek and Devyn Rocker had
one hit each.
On Saturday, the Twins were swept in
the doubleheader at Great Falls. The Chargers won an 11-8 shoot-out
in the opener then held the Twins scoreless for a 3-0 victory in
the nightcap.
Rocker, Cronin and Chris King each had
two hits in the opener. Kyler Blades tallied two RBIs.
Glacier travels to Spokane today and
plays in the Apple Valley Invite this weekend.
