Fishermen win slugfest with Indians, 14-7
By GARY HENLEY
The Daily Astorian
After two straight losses in league play,
the Astoria Fishermen were back to look-
ing like the Astoria Fishermen Wednesday
night at Aiken Field.
Astoria hammered out some timely
base hits and scored a season-high 14
runs, in a 14-7 Cowapa League baseball
win over Scappoose.
The much-needed victory pulls the
Fishermen into a third place tie with the
Indians in the league standings at 6-5, with
four games remaining.
“Absolutely, it was huge,” said Asto-
ria coach Dave Gasser. “Because there’s a
big difference between inishing third and
fourth in our league (for hosting Regional
play-in games).
“It was good to do it at home, and in
a game that mattered,” he said. “And this
one really mattered.”
A three-run homer by Samboy Tuim-
ato in the bottom of the irst inning gave
Astoria an early 3-0 lead, but the Fisher-
men bats fell silent, as Scappoose starter
Gus Nelson held Astoria scoreless over
the next two innings.
In the meantime, the Indians rallied
with four runs in the top of the second and
two in the third for a 6-3 lead.
It could have been worse, but Scap-
poose left the bases loaded to end both
the third and fourth innings, as the Indi-
ans stranded 11 base runners for the game.
The Fishermen left 10 runners on base
of their own, but Astoria certainly took
care of business in the bottom of the fourth
— which could ultimately serve as a turn-
ing point in their season.
Cade O’Brien opened the inning with
a single to left, stole second, and scored
moments later on a sharp double to
right-center ield by Carter Wallace.
And the Fish weren’t close to being
done.

‘We finally opened

Dave Gasser
Astoria coach
scored Wallace, Kyle Strange had a fourth
straight base hit, Tuimato walked, and
Fremstad scored on a grounder by Olaf
Englund.
Strange scored on a double steal, cross-
ing the plate before Englund was tagged
out, giving Astoria a 7-6 lead.
“We inally opened the clogged drain
on our offense,” Gasser said. “All of a
sudden we just starting swinging the bats,
and the hits started dropping in. And they
were all opposite ield. It’s been a while
since we’ve hit the ball like that.
“That’s been our problem,” he said.
“When we face a good pitcher, we just
don’t hit the ball, over and over and over.

We were able to do it off their ace (Nelson),
and it was nice to do it at home. Scappoose
had beaten us four straight here.”
Gasser made a few changes to the bat-
ting order — nothing big, but enough to
shake things up and make a difference.
“You’ve heard of ‘if it ain’t broke,
don’t ix it?’ It was sort of the inverse for
us,” he said. “Things just weren’t work-
ing the way we usually do things, so we
just moved a few people around, took bat-
ting practice without a ball … and just did
some things differently, because our usual
routine wasn’t working.”
The Indians did their part in helping
— three Scappoose pitchers combined to
walk nine batters and hit six more.
“I’ve never seen so many hit batters in
game,” said Gasser, whose own pitchers
hit six Scappoose batters, for a combined
12 hit batters.
“And it wasn’t a beanball game — I
want to go on record with that,” he said.
“We have a lot of respect for each other,
and it wouldn’t come to that. Guys were
just getting hit.”
The Fishermen continued their offen-
sive onslaught in the ifth, as Jasyn Gohl
drew a leadoff walk (Astoria leadoff bat-
ters reached base in each of the irst ive
innings), Jared Lucore was hit by a pitch,
O’Brien walked … and Fremstad drove
them all in with a double to deep left ield.
Astoria tacked on four more runs on two
bases-loaded walks, a balk and an error.
Wallace picked up the win on the
mound, after relieving Jackson Arnsdorf
in the third inning.
“Carter came in and threw a whale of
a game,” Gasser said. “He was lat out
throwing. And when we can hit like we
did, and pitch like that … we can be a
tough team to beat.”
Astoria’s work isn’t over. The Fisher-
men play at second-place Valley Catholic
Friday, followed by a home game with Til-
lamook and two road games (at Seaside, at
Banks) to inish the league season.
