Everett scored twice in the fi rst inning at Volcanoes Stadium, and Salem-Keizer responded with seven runs in the bottom of the fi rst. Then the AquaSox scored twice in the second and were answered by one Salem-Keizer run. In the third, Everett made it an 8-7 game, and that’s where the score stayed until the end. It was Striking Out Sub- stance Abuse night, featuring pregame police demonstra- tions and an appearance by McGruff the Crime Dog, brought in by helicopter. The Volcanoes’ starting pitcher, Mac Marshall, was a starter at Chipola College and has had rough starts since joining the Volcanoes but is still considered to have the potential to keep that role. In 2-1/3 innings he gave up sev- en runs, four earned, on eight hits but struck out three and walked none. In the top of the fi rst, the AquaSox’s Shawn O’Malley doubled to center fi eld, went to third base on a wild pitch and scored as Corey Simpson doubled to left center. Erick Mejia hit an infi eld single and reached second on a throw- ing error by second base- man Christian Lichtenthaler. Simpson scored on the play. In the Salem-Keizer fi rst, CJ Hinojosa walked with one out and reached second on a single to right by Ronnie Je- bavy. Miguel Gomez doubled to right, scoring both baser- unners. Jose Vizcaino Jr. dou- bled to right, with Gomez moving to third. Fernando Pujadas singled to left, scoring Gomez and sending Vizcaino to third. John Riley brought Vizcaino home with a single to right. Lichtenthaler bunted a single to load the bases. Joe Pistorese then took the mound to replace starter Da- rin Gillies, who became the losing pitcher with a 1-2 re- cord. Steven Duggar singled to left center, driving in Pu- jadas and Riley. Duggar was in a rundown trying to steal second but made it when shortstop O’Malley missed a throw. Lichtenthaler scored on the play. Everett’s PJ Jones led off the second with a single to center and went to second on a wild pitch. Yordi Calde- ron reached fi rst on a throw- ing error by third baseman Gomez that allowed Jones to score. Calderon stole second, went to third on a grounder and scored on a balk. Jebavy led off the second with a home run, his fi fth, over the left fi eld wall. Go- mez hit an infi eld single and went to second as an error by third baseman Logan Tay- lor put Vizcaino on fi rst. Pu- jadas loaded the bases with an infi eld single, but Pistorese struck out Riley and got Julio Pena to hit into a double play. The Volcanoes made dou- ble plays in the fourth, sixth and seventh innings. In the Everett third, Simp- son hit a one-out double to left and scored as Mejia doubled to center. Luis Liberato scored Mejia with a triple to right, and Jones singled to left to send Mejia home. Luis Pino, who became the winning pitcher with a 3-0 record, came in to relieve Marshall and retired the next two batters. Nobody got farther than second base for the rest of the game.

Da- vid Owen pitched the eighth for Salem-Keizer, and Caleb Smith pitched the ninth for his fi fth save. “When we started, “Vol- canoes manager Kyle Haines A the end of this game), said, “I’ve been working in the cage with Ricky (Ward, hit- ting coach).” Owens, playing his fi rst professional season, said he was not ready to guess what his eventual role would be. He called his curve his best pitch. Free physicals for OSAA athletes Willamette Surgery Center will host a free sports physical clinic on Saturday, Aug. 8. Open to all student athletes, the physicals will be provided from 8:30 to 11 a.m at Willamette Surgery Center, located at 1445 State Street, in Salem. Athletes must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. If you are interested in having your athlete participate, please fi ll out the physical examination form completely and legibly ahead of time and bring it to the clinic. Forms can be found in each school’s main offi ce, or printed from the school or The Oregon School Activities Association (OSAA) website. The OSAA mandates all student athletes have physicals prior to participation in athletics. WSC has offered free sports physicals to school athletes for the past 11 years. “We typically provide about 120 to 150 free sports physicals every year at this event, and we would love to do more,” said Marilynn Daberkow, a Hope Orthopedic registered nurse who is helping to coordinate the free clinic. “Clearly it meets a need for the Salem area; many student athletes would not be able to participate in their favorite sports without the free physicals we offer. We are happy to do it, it’s a fun way for our staff and physi- cians to give back to our community.” MHS soccer camp grows B Participation was up in McNary High School’s annual youth soc- cer camp, which began Monday, Aug. 3.

Howald D C NWL wins All-Star game stringing hits By HERB SWETT For the Keizertimes The Northwest League All- Stars took 10 innings to beat the Pioneer League All-Stars 6-5 Tuesday in Spokane. This was a close one all the way between the short-season A stars and those of a league one step lower (Rookie). Three Volcanoes made the team and contributed: catcher Miguel Gomez, designated hitter Jose Vizcaino Jr. and pitcher Drew Leenhouts. Jared Miller of the Hillsboro Hops was the starting pitcher for the NWL. Tanner Banks of the Great Falls Voyagers started for the Pioneer League. First to score was the Northwest League. Drew Jackson of the Everett Aqua Sox doubled in the bottom of the fi rst inning and scored on a double by Kevin Padlo of the Boise Hawks. The Pioneer League tied the score in the second on a bases-empty home run by Austin Byler of the Missoula Osprey. In the third, the visitors went ahead. Facing Carlos Hernandez of the Hops, Dan- iel Suero of the Grand Junc- tion Rockies doubled, went to third on a wild pitch and scored as Michael Pierson of the Orem Owls grounded out. Gomez singled in the bot- tom of the fourth, but the hit was unproductive. Leenhouts took the mound for the fi fth inning only, al- lowing one hit and striking out one. Facing Einhardt of the Great Falls Voyagers in the bottom of the fi fth, LeDarious Clark of the Spokane Indians walked with two out, stole second and third and scored on a single by Padlo to tie the score. A bases-empty homer by David Denson off Brandon Hinkle of the Vancouver Ca- nadians put the visitors back ahead by a run in the sixth. The host team went ahead in the seventh.
