Lower Columbia club splits twinbill at Volcanoes Stadium The Astorian Twenty-four hours after splitting a pair of games at Centralia, the Lower Colum- bia Baseball Club ran its record to 15-4 for the sum- mer, with a doubleheader split Monday night against a team known as “The Yard.” Lower Columbia opened with a 7-5 win, before the Yards bounced back with a 4-2 victory in the late night- cap at Volcanoes Stadium in Keizer. The American Legion AAA team of local high school graduates will take a much-deserved three-day break before hosting the Vancouver Mavericks for a single game Friday at 5 p.m. at Ernie Aiken Field. Lower Columbia jumped on the Yard early in Mon- day’s first game, scoring three runs in the top of the first inning, highlighted by a leadoff triple from Luke Brown of Wahkiakum. The first six batters of the game reached safely for Lower Columbia, which had seven hits through two innings, including two apiece for Brown and War- renton’s Austin Little. Ethan Lindstrom of Naselle started on the mound and pitched three- and-a-third innings, allow- ing four hits and six walks SCOREBOARD SPORTS SCHEDULE THURSDAY Junior Baseball — At Astoria: Lower Columbia AA vs. Astoria Ford, 2:30 p.m.; Lower Columbia AA vs. Knappa, 5 p.m.; Knappa vs. Astoria Ford, 7:30 p.m. SATURDAY Junior Baseball — At Ernie Aiken Field: Tillamook vs. War- renton, 11 a.m.; Neah-Kah-Nie vs. Warrenton, 2 p.m.; Neah-Kah-Nie vs. Astoria Ford, 5 p.m.; at CMH Field: Ilwaco vs. Astoria Ford, 11:30 a.m.; Tillamook vs. Ilwaco, 2:30 p.m. Lower Columbia pitcher Ethan Lindstrom checks with catcher Jake Morrow during Monday’s doubleheader at Volcanoes Stadium. with six strikeouts, before giving way to Warrenton’s Devin Jackson in the fourth. Leading 4-1 after three innings, the Yard rallied with three runs in the fifth to tie it at 5-5, collecting five hits off Astoria’s Dylan Rush. But Lower Columbia answered with two runs in the sixth, as Rush reached on a bunt, Brown doubled to right field, and both scored on a single to left by Mitch- ell Bergquist of R.A. Long for a 7-5 advantage. Rush struck out all three batters he faced in the sixth to pick up the win, and the game was stopped after six innings because of a time limit. The Yards led 2-0 through two-and-a-half innings in Game 2, before Lower Columbia scored on a pair of wild pitches in the bottom of the third. The Yard regained the lead with a run in the top of the fifth, then tacked on one in the seventh. Lower Columbia had two runners on with two outs in the bottom of the seventh, but the Yards’ relief pitcher struck out the final batter to preserve the win.

In a modified Junior Base- ball season, the Ilwaco Fish- ermen hosted a 17-and-un- der baseball doubleheader with the Warrenton Warriors in Long Beach, Washington. Both teams have upcom- ing games scheduled for most Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays through Aug. 1. All games will be played at city-owned fields in Asto- ria and Long Beach, with weekend games also at CMH Field. Tuesday’s winner was Warrenton, which cruised to a 17-7, 16-6 sweep over the Fishermen. The Warriors were seeing their first action of the year, and were playing their first official game since the 2019 3A state championship — although with a much differ- ent, younger lineup. Warrenton jumped all over Ilwaco early in Game 1, scoring seven runs in the top of the first, then tacking on six in the third. Familiar names included Josh Earls, who was 3-for-4 in both games, with a triple in the opener and two doubles in Game 2; Dylon Atwood had a double in both games; and Duane Falls was 2-for-4 in the first game and belted a three-run homer in Game 2. Falls was also the winning pitcher in Game 1, allow- ing just one hit and a walk with 11 strikeouts. The War- riors committed seven errors defensively. Down 17-2, Ilwaco scored five runs in the bottom of the fifth. Warrenton built a 14-1 lead in the second game, before the Fishermen scored SEVENDAY FORECAST FOR ASTORIA TODAY FRIDAY SATURDAY MONDAY OBITUARY POLICY The Astorian publishes paid obituaries.
