GLAD Freshman le fthander Greg Palmer, a draft pick of the Toronto Blue Jays, stares down a Lane batter in the second game of a doubleheader against the Titans on Saturday. The freshman from Gresham High School entered the game with an earned run average just over one before giving up 11 runs in a 14-4 loss. The league-leading Titans won the first game 15-5. Cougars' best get pounded JOHN THORBURN Sports Editor The Clackamas baseball team got beat last week. Luckily, the two losses that the Cougars suffered were dealt by a team that they should have lost too, according to Clackamas Head Coach Robin Robinson. "We got beat by a very, very good team on Saturday," noted Robinson. The Southern Region-leading Lane Titans visited Clackamas over the weekend weilding big bats and tough pitching. Coach Robinson attempted to mount an attack on the Titans by starting his two best pitchers against the visitors. After playing 14 innings of base = MOTORS l/Bvù > ■— F • 'li Í at a m II 'W fy ownedfor ball, Lane walked away with 15-5 and 14-4 victories. "We threw our best pitchers against them and they still pounded us for 15 and 14 runs. They're a tremendous hitting squad." In the 15-5 loss, Beaverton High grad Glenn Boss gave up 10 earned runs including a three-run homerun by the Titans' Trevor Brown. Rian Alden went three for four at the plate while Jason Farrimond was a perfect three for three with two runs batted in. In the 14-4 loss, Greg Palmer gave up nine earned runs on seven hits in 2.1 innings pitched before Chris Lohrey replaced him in the third. The 6'8" righthander struck out four while allowing three hits in 2.2 innings pitched. Farrimond and Alden led the Cougars again with two for three and two for four performances, re spectively. "Alden is crushing the ball right now," noted Robinson. "He's re ally strong at the plate." The losses dropped Clackamas to 3-5 in league play and a 6-16 record overall. Last Tuesday, Mt. Hood visited Clackamas for a doubleheader which the two teams split. In the first game, Alvin Ellis pro pelled the Cougars to a 7-3 vicotry over the Saints. In the second game, Clackamas was blanked 8-0 and managed only three hits the entire game. Yesterday, Clackamas took on Linn-Benton in a single, nine-in ning game at home. The Cougars came from behind in the bottom of the sixth inning to escape with a 4-3 win behind Farrimonds two doubles and a two for four performance by Ellis. Landolt recorded the win. If the season ended today, Clackamas would miss the play offs as it currently sits in fourth place in the region standings. Only the top two finishers in each region qualify for the postseason^ "The Southern Region is the toughest region in the Northwest this season," noted Robinson. "It will be tough just to get out of the region and into the play offs. "Lower Columbia is in first place in the West at 11 -0 and we only lost to them 2-1 and 4-3 ear lier in the year. We've got our work cut out for us." Pull your team together by putting them through the Ropes... 17009 SE Me Loughlin Blvd • Milwaukie, OR 97267 Financial Freedom Now!
