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

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.

Warrenton sweeps doubleheader with Ilwaco
The Astorian
The summer season offi-
cially opened for one more
group of baseball players
Tuesday night.
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
