Aug. 11: Volcanoes 7,
Hillsboro 0
The Volcanoes decided
they preferred a third shutout
win for the season to getting
swept in a series.
Salem-Keizer’s big inning
was the four-run fi rst. Steven
Duggar singled and was on
base when Miguel Gomez
hit his fourth home run of
the season. The second out
followed, and then CJ Hi-
nojosa hit his third homer of
the year. Fernando Pujadas
doubled, went to third base
on a wild pitch by Hillsboro
starter and loser Tyler Mark,
and scored on a single by Ju-
nior Amion.
Hinojosa had three hits for
the night.
Nolan Riggs, the Volca-
noes’ starting pitcher, went
six innings and allowed the
Hops their total of three hits,
running his record to 3-1.
Rayan Hernandez pitched in
relief.
to center and scored as Jebavy
doubled to left.
Sim held the Hops score-
less in the second inning, and
in the bottom of the second
the Volcanoes tied the score.
Pujadas doubled to center
and, with Hinojosa at bat,
reached third on a wild pitch.
Hinojosa then hit his second
home run of the season over
the left fi eld wall. Reed struck
out John Riley, but then Julio
Pena homered to left.
Jaret Leverett took the
mound to start the third,
walked Dezzi and gave up a
bad-hop single to center to
Irving. Peevyhouse hit into
a double play, Hinojosa to
second baseman Amion to
fi rst baseman Chris Shaw, but
Dezzi scored on the play to
give the Hops a 5-4 lead that
they never lost. Leverett be-
came the losing pitcher, and
Will Landsheft, who pitched
the Volcano third, got the
win.
The Volcanoes’ David
Owen pitched the next three
innings, striking out two and
allowing only one hit.
In the Salem-Keizer fi fth,
facing pitcher Kirby Bel-
low, Shaw led off with a long
single to right. However, the
next batter, Jose Vizcaino Jr.,
grounded into a double play.
Pujadas then grounded out.
Hinojosa’s triple, hit to
center, started the bottom of
the sixth. However, Bellow
struck out the next three bat-
ters.
Cory Taylor pitched the
seventh and eighth innings
for Salem-Keizer and Ryan
Halstead the ninth.
In the bottom of the ninth,
Steven Duggar led off with a
walk but was picked off at
fi rst base on a close play that
manager Kyle Haines disput-
ed so vehemently that he was
ejected from the game. Ricky
Ward, the pitching coach, re-
placed him in the third base
coaching box. The Hillsboro
pitcher, Brody Greer, walked
Amion but retired the next
two batters to get his second
save.
“We let their bullpen shut
us down,” Haines said. “We
can’t be happy with just a few
runs.”
Riley, after a long struggle
with the bat, has been hitting
very well lately.
“Both Ricky Ward and
Kyle Haines have helped me
out by showing videos,” he
said.
Amion, asked what was
keeping the Volcanoes down
the last three games, said,
“We just need to get hits in a
timely manner.”
