Redlegs Sweep Aliens

08/13/2024
 

The Aliens fought back in the nightcap and kept things interesting until the fifth when Camden took a commanding nine run lead. 

Jacob Robinson started the game by reaching on an error, stole second, moved to third on a hit by Tyler Schrock, and then scored on an errant pickoff attempt. 

Leading 1-0, Kyle Weldon struck out the side in the bottom of the first.  The Aliens were able to scrape together an unearned run in the second to tie the game, but Weldon punched out the next two batters to end any further threat. 

The Redlegs then took a 6-1 lead, scoring five times in the top of the third.  TJ Johnson singled to start the frame.  After a flyout, Jacob Robinson was hit by a pitch, followed by a walk to Tyler Schrock to load the bases.  A wild pitch scored Johnson before Ben Schooler walked to reload the bases.  Max Ramsey then delivered a sacrifice fly before Kyle Weldon and Evan Koogler each delivered RBIs.  Another run would later score due to an Aliens fielding error. 

Justin Lynch took over on the mound in the third and tossed three innings surrendering one unearned run, one hit, and added two strikeouts to pick up the win in his season debut on the mound. 

Camden then put things away in the 5th, pushing five more runs across.  Max Ramsey sacrificed in another run, Kyle Weldon added a two-run double, and Mike Hartman singled in a run.  Ben Schooler added an RBI double in the seventh. 

TJ Johnson tossed the final two frames, fanning five Aliens batters while allowing a run on two hits.
