SIUSLAW NEWS | WEDNESDAY, APRIL 21, 2020 | 3B Viks from 1B more runs. In the sixth, Clay Kramer came in as relief, pitching the final inning of the game af- ter three strikeouts from Garza during his outing. The Falcons dominated in the sixth inning, scor- ing an additional nine runs, prompting the um- pires to call the game at the end of the sixth in- ning, with a final score of 22-7. Shinn explained that, despite the loss, there were still many positives about the game. “We reduced the num- ber of strikeouts in this game,” he said. “We ran the bases aggressively, which I like to see.” The Viks were struck out eight times on Fri- day, as opposed to the 10 strikeouts they had last Tuesday (April 13) at Cot- tage Grove. According to Shinn, this is one of the areas the team is focusing on specifically. “I try to emphasize, when we put the ball in play it makes the other team have to play error free baseball,” said Shinn. Another area of focus will be on Siuslaw’s pitch- ers. “We have to work at reducing the number of errors to help our pitch- ers reduce the number of pitches they have to throw in the game,” added Shinn. Friday was meant to be a full doubleheader for the Vikings. However, the nightcap had to be paused at the top of the fourth in- ning due to a lack of day- light, with Elmira leading 13-8. Said Shinn, “The first NED HICKSON/SIUSLAW NEWS Siuslaw pitcher Isaac Garza covers home, attempting to get the tag on a steal by the Falcons in the 3-hour opening game of last Friday’s doubleheader. The nightcap was called in the fourth inning due to darkness. game took over three hours to complete. The second game didn't start We’ve got you COVERED until about 7 p.m. and, by about 8:15 p.m., it was be- coming too dark to safely SERVING FLORENCE AND SURROUNDING AREAS SINCE 1994 play the game.” The game will pick up from that point when the Vikings travel to play Elmira away on May 4, with the score as noted and team lineups starting from where they left off. In the meantime, the Viks hit their home field last night (April 20), with game results unavailable by press deadlines. Friday, the Vikings will be on the road to face Marist in a doubleheader starting at 3 p.m. Greg Bishop Cell 541-297-0392 Email: offi ce@coastpavement.com business • homeowners • auto • life • health • medicare plans A SK US ABOUT M ULTIPLE P OLICY D ISCOUNTS !
