Baseball splits
week's action
by Mark A. Borrelli
Editor-in-Chief
The Clackamas baseball
team hit the road for a pair of
double headers last week, and
came home batting .500, sweep
ing a pair at Clark, and drop
ping two at league leading Linn-
Benton.
The Cougars outlasted the
rain in the first of two at Clark
on Tuesday 4-18. The rain didn’t
cool off the Clackamas bats at
all, as they stung Clark pitching
for 13 hits, in route to a 8-5
victory. Blues Buckles started
the game, and he combined with
Tim Artendell to 7 hit the Pen
guins.
Game two of the twin bill
saw the Cougars play even bet
ter. Brady Miller started on the
mound, and pitched masterful.
Miller blanked Clark, leading
7-0, before the Penguins could
muster any kind of offense,
Clackamas had to settle for a 7-
3 win, and a sweep of the double
header.
Clackamas offensively
showed a new look, as they hit
and ran their way to the win.
Clackamas stole six bases, in
cluding three double steals, and
executed the hit and runs per
fectly four times.
In the twin bill, Clackamas
had a trio of hot hitters. Jeff
Graham tallied 4-7, Jason
Hawkins 4-9, and Jim Squires
went 2-5, with three big RBI’s.
“We really played well in
the Clark double header, I was
really pleased with our execu
tion,” said Robinson.
The Cougars got back on
the road Saturday 4-21, and
headed to Albany for a pair of
games with league power Linn-
Benton. Clackamas didn’t fare
as well as the Clark series, drop
ping both games.
Clackamas entered the
games with their best two pitch
ers suffering some soreness in
their pitching arms, and the Road
runners took advantage of it.
Don Nelson pitched the first
game.
Clackamas dropped the first
game 13-3, and in a closer sec
ond game lost 10-6. Offensive
stars for Clackamas were Squires,
2-3; Tim Ensley, 4-8; Rob Van-
Tassel 3-6, and Gage Campbell
2-3. Defensively, Tim Ensley
played brilliantly, making four
outstanding catches in the out
field.
The two losses dropped the
Cougars to 5-15 and 2-7 in league.
Despite the losses, Robinson
remains optimistic.
“‘We’re getting better,” said
Robinson. “The thing that is
hurting us is the errors. We’re
not getting timely hitting, but
we’re getting better. The team
has a really good attitude,” said
Robinson.
The Cougars, weather per
mitting, will host Lewis & Clark
in a make up game tomorrow,
and will be at Mt. Hood for a
double header Saturday.
