In Game One Saturday, Dave Drotzmann of JRW and BC pitcher Kurt Penne of O\u00e2\u20ac\u2122Blarney\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Pub locked up in a classic pitcher\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s duel. (Bucknell Park played as O\u00e2\u20ac\u2122Blarney\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Pub, a favorite drinking hole for teams in the Lacey-Olympia area). Drotzmann struck out 8 and walked none in a 3-1 victory, allowing three singles and two doubles. Kurt Penne struck out six and walked one, allowing four singles and two doubles.<\/p>\n
SS Trevor Knight doubled in O\u00e2\u20ac\u2122Blarney\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s lone run. JRW\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s 2B Don Cawthron singled in JRW\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s first run in a 2-4 effort. The other two runs scored on an error and a passed ball.<\/p>\n

JRW starting pitcher Travis Kraft was victimized by a 2 run error in the bottom of the first, allowing 5 runs with only two earned. O\u00e2\u20ac\u2122Blarney\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s LF Dave Carlton\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s 2 RBI single and CF Mike Linnane\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s RBI single were the big hits.<\/p>\n

In game 3 Sunday morning, Bucknell Park came with NW Merchant Jerseys. (NWM) Drotzmann and Penne hooked up a another pitcher\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s duel with NWM taking a 3-2 victory. In the early innings, NWM scored 3 unearned runs. JRW countered in the 4th with one run on 1B Dean Waltier\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s RBI single. In the bottom of the 7th, Dean led off with a single, advanced on a walk and both runners advanced on a sacrifice. Dean scored on the CF\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s single and the tying run advanced to third. Kurt Penne induced a game ending 6U\u00e2\u20ac\u201d6-3 double play to preserve the victory.<\/p>\n
In game 4, the JRW hitters again came alive to gain a 10-7 victory and a split of the 4 game series. JRW\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Travis Kraft started, but left in the 2nd inning with arm problems.
