JV baseball splits doubleheader against Dayton

By Peyton Capellen Posted April 13, 2017

The Lowry JV baseball team faced Dayton for two games on April 10.

In the first game of the series, Dayton started with the lead, scoring one run in the first inning. The Bucks tied up the game, also scoring one run in the bottom of the first.

In the second inning, the Bucks took the lead for good, scoring five runs. According to stats from GameChanger, there was an error scoring one run, Klay Garner singled, driving in one run, Josh Leveille doubled, driving in two runs, and Josiah Chapman singled, driving in another run.

Chapman secured the win for his team on the mound. He pitched five innings and only gave up two runs, five hits, and struck out seven batters while walking none. They won the first game 12-2.

The second game of the series was very different from the dominant game the boys had only hours earlier.

Dayton’s pitcher Hastings earned the win for the Dust Devils. He tossed two innings, allowing zero runs and zero hits. Dayton won the game 9-1.

The Buckaroos’ next series will be on April 15, at South Tahoe.
