SKV, continued from Page 1 In the Salem-Keizer sev- enth, Jeff Houghtby tripled and then scored on a Jai- ro Pomares single. Canario doubled Pomares home and Armani Smith scored Rodri- guez with a single. Canario scored as Martorano ground- ed out. A two-out single in the ninth by Daniel Cope drove in Vladimir Dilone, but Jor- dan Scott struck out the next batter to preserve the win for Abel Adames (2-0). Colton Hathcock (0-1) was the los- ing pitcher in relief. Friday, Aug. 23: Volcanoes 4, Vancouver 1 Jasier Herrera pitched sev- en innings, allowing fi ve hits and striking out three, lead- ing the Volcanoes to victory in this fi rst game of a road se- ries. His record went to 5-3, and Jorge Labrador pitched the last two innings, getting his fi rst save. Armani Smith hit a solo home run for Salem-Keizer in the fi rst inning, and Alex Canario hit a two-run ho- mer in the sixth. The Cana- dians’ one run came in the seventh on a sacrifi ce fl y by Trevor Schwecke. The losing pitcher was Gabriel Ponce, whose record went to 0-3. Saturday, Aug. 24: Volcanoes 5, Vancouver 3 It looked like a breeze for Salem-Keizer until the ninth inning, but the Canadians got three runners home be- fore reliever Israel Cruz put the fi re out and had his fourth save. The biggest of the Volca- noes 11 hits was a fi fth-in- ning triple by Armani Smith that drove in Alex Canario and Carter Aldrete. Canario, Harrison Freed, Chris Cor- bett and Tyler Wyatt each had two hits for Salem-Keizer. Norwith Gudino, the Vol- canoes’ starting pitcher, had four strikeouts in fi ve innings and won his fi rst game against no losses. Ben Madison fol- lowed with three scoreless innings. Andy Rohloff was one out away from ending the game when Brett Wright doubled, moving Jesus Lopez to third base. A walk load- ed the bases, another walk forced in a run, which made the score 5-1 and brought the tying run to the plate. Cruz came in to get the fi nal out. He gave up a two- run-single to Tanner Morris, but Cruz retired the next batter. Juan Diaz, Vancouver’s starter, took the loss at 3-5. Sunday, Aug. 25: Vancouver 7, Volcanoes 1 The host Canadians went wild in the fourth inning, scoring six runs to take down the Volcanoes. Salem-Keizer’s lone run of the game came when Beicker Mendoza drove in Armani Smith in the top of the fourth. But in the bot- tom half of the frame, Van- couver answered with six of its seven runs. An RBI single by McGregory Contreras, a two-run double by Luis De Los Santos, a single by Tanner Morris and a two-run homer by Spencer Horwitz gave the Canadians the lead for good. All six runs came off starter Conner Nurse, whose record went to 1-4. The winning pitcher was Luis Quinones in relief, with his second vic- tory against one loss. Vancouver outhit Sa- lem-Keizer 12-9, and Men- doza had three of the Volca- noes hits. KEIZERTIMES/Matt Rawlings Beicker Mendoza runs out a ground ball.
