Sixth inning outburst propels Napavine past Onalaska

Posted

Ten out of 13 hitters reached base for the Tigers in a nine-run sixth inning that turned a C2BL contest against the Loggers into a route, claiming a 13-7 victory at Onalaska High School on Monday night.

Grace Pancake tied the game at 5-5 with an RBI single and Hannah Fay ripped a run-scoring double to give Napavine (2-0, 1-0 C2BL) the lead for good. Dakota Lyons and Makayla Brett added RBI singles and Taylen Evander roped a two-run triple to cap the inning.

To go along with a 4-for-5 day at the plate with two RBIs, Fay struck out eight in the circle in five innings of work. Lyons and Brett, the Nos. 8 and 9 hitters in the lineup, each went 2-for-4 with two runs batted in.

Onalaska led 1-0 after two complete innings and 5-3 after a two-run fifth. The Loggers return to the field on Thursday to take on Mossyrock in a non-league game while the Tigers take on Adna on Thursday, also in a non-league tilt.
