Wolfpack battles Panthers

WAITSBURG–After the River View Jayvees broke a 4-4 tie with five runs in the fourth and fifth innings, and going on to a 14-4 win in five innings, the Dayton-Waitsburg Wolfpack rebounded to go seven innings in the nightcap, ending in a 5-5 tie after the Panthers managed the tying run in the top of the seventh.

DW is 0-10-1 so far this season, still in the hunt for that first win.

River View had opened the game with four runs, but DW clawed its way back with a run in the first, two in the second and the tying run in the third. But RV's Rawlings tripled on a 1-2 pitch in the top of the fourth to drive in two runs and prime the Panthers for the two runaway innings.

RV's Reed surrendered four runs on eight hits over four and a third innings, striking out two.

Levi Boudrieau toed the rubber for DW, allowing six hits and four runs over three innings, striking out two and walking zero. Klint Kuykendall pitched two innings in relief.

The second game finished in a 5-5 tie. The Wolfpack took the lead in the first inning when Keon Lindley singled on a 3-2 count, scoring one run. Then both teams scored one in the fourth and three in the fifth, DW leading 5-4 going into the seventh. The Panthers managed one run in the seventh to tie it.
