PAGE A10, KEIZERTIMES, MARCH 29, 2019 McNary can’t come back against Tigard BY MATT RAWLINGS Of the Keizertimes The McNary softball squad had every chance to get back into the game, but at the end of the day, they couldn’t cash in on multiple opportunities. After digging themselves into a 4-0 hole, the Celtics came back to cut the lead to one later in the game and even brought the tying run to the plate with no outs in the top of the seventh. McNary, however, couldn’t take advantage as they fell to Tigard 6-4 on Friday, March 22. Taylor Ebbs and Kate Ron- ning had two hits apiece to lead the Celtics. Tigard got their fi rst run off McNary pitcher Faith Danner in the bottom of the fi rst on a two-out wild pitch, but the Tigers were able to break the game open in the bottom of the second. After starting the frame with a line-out, Tigard loaded the bases back-to-back singles and a hit-batter. It looked like Danner might get out of the inning with no damage as she got the next bat- ter to ground into a fi elder’s choice. But Maddie Hoover’s two-run single to center fi eld put the Tigers on top 3-0. Danner would surrender another RBI-hit to the follow- ing batter as Tigard took a 4-0 lead into the third inning. “(Danner’s) movement pitches just weren’t breaking. They were left out over the plate,” McNary head coach Kevin Wise said “With a good team like Tigard, you can’t do that.” After not getting a base knock in the fi rst two frames, the McNary offense woke up in the top of the third. With one out in the inning, nine-batter Kamryn Miller be- gan the McNary threat with a single to center, putting Mc- Nary back at the top of the lineup. Alexa Cepeda followed with a double down the right fi eld line to give the Celtics two runners in scoring position. Ronning kept the rally go- ing with an RBI infi eld single — and slid head fi rst into the bag to beat the throw. Ebbs nearly tied the game in the next at-bat as the soph- omore launched a towering fl y ball that hit off the top of the wall in right fi eld. She had to instead settle for an RBI-dou- ble that cut the lead to 4-2. Ronning scored on a wild pitch two batters later to get the Celtics within one. After a rough fi rst two frames, Danner seemed to set- tle in as she was able to toss three straight scoreless innings to keep the defi cit at 4-3. The Celtics had a golden opportunity to take the lead Celts place fi fth at tourney Submitted The Celtics fi fth grade tournament team of Keizer Youth Basketball Association placed fi fth at the Oregon Middle School Basketball Championships, which took place in Sisters on March 9th and 10th. of the seventh. Tigard pitcher Sophia VanderSommen gave free pass- es to Miller and Cepeda to start the inning, putting McNary in business. Ronning tried to get aboard via bunt to load the bas- es, but was thrown out at fi rst. An RBI-groundout by Ebbs brought in Miller in to make the score 6-4. But VanderSom- men got Covalt to groundout to third to end the game. “We left too many people on base,” Wise said. “We need to fi gure out how to manufac- ture those runs a little bit bet- ter. But I liked the resiliency that we showed.” KEIZERTIMES/Matt Rawlings McNary second baseman Abbi Covalt throws out a runner at fi rst in the Celtics 6-4 loss to Tigard. in top of the fi fth as one-out singles from Ronning and Ebbs gave McNary runners on fi rst and second with the heart of the order coming up. Cleanup hitter Abbi Covalt squared around to fake a bunt to try to free up Ronning and Ebbs for a double steal. But Ti- gard anticipated the play-call and rotated their shortstop over to third to nail Ronning trying to steal third. “Thinking back on it, I probably should have had (Co- valt) bunt instead of fake bunt,” Wise said. “But we also felt like we wanted to start pushing the issue and stealing a little bit. If it worked, it would have been a huge boost for us.” Covalt ended up walking, but Hannah Ebner grounded out to end the inning. Tigard got a pair of insur- ance runs in the bottom of the sixth on consecutive RBI-dou- bles to go up 6-3 entering the fi nal frame — which ended up being crucial as McNary put themselves in a position to score multiple runs in the top Front row (left to right): Jayden China, Kyle Wilson, Riley Schlag, Kyle Argue.
