POMEROY – The WP baseball team was 2-1 for the week last week, beating Mac-Hi Thursday, 7-2 at home, and then splitting a double header here Friday against Pomeroy, 13-7 and 5-6.
On Friday, the Tigers started got a rough start in both games, giving up four runs in each of the first innings. After falling behind 6-2, in the first game, WP rallied for 11 runs in the third, fourth and fifth innings, to put the game away.
Sophomore pitcher Tyler Fedderson relieved Jacob Dunn in the third inning and got the victory. Fedderson struck out seven and allowed only three hits over 4 2/3 innings. Talen Larsen pounded three hits, and Chance Leroue and Jacob Hargrove each had two.
In the second game, the Tigers scored two runs in the top of the seventh inning to take a 5-4 lead. But the Pirates took advantage of two WP walks and an error in the bottom of the second, scoring two runs on a walk-off single for the win. For the game, Larsen had three more hits and Leroue had two.
"We rallied though in both games and were able to take the lead," said WP Coach Dustin Snedigar. "We hit the ball very well on the day. We had some costly errors and weren't as sharp as we should have been on the mound (Walking 12 hitters)."
