Game 20 – Friday May 1 Loveland at Anderson HS

Jacob Albin (W) was masterful at Anderson Friday night taking a perfect game an out into the 5th inning and finishing with a 5-1 complete game victory for the Tigers.

Scoreless through the first 3 innings Loveland got on the board in the 4th on a single by Colton Lakes, a sacrifice bunt by Adam Beran, a single by Chris Sackett and a sacrifice fly by Drew Steinbrunner.  The Tigers scored 3 more in the 5th beginning with a Luke Waddell hit, a walk to Jay Wilson and Josh Meszaros reaching on a fielder’s choice.  Waddell scored on a wild pitch with the ball getting far enough away Wilson was able to score too.  Lakes then double home Meszaros for a 4-0 lead.

With 1 out in the 5th and Albin just cruising an Anderson batter laid down a perfect bunt for their first hit and base runner of the game. A single and a double later in the inning brought that runner home to make it a 4-1 game. The Tigers completed the scoring with a run in the 7th on a Chris Sackett single scoring Wilson after he and Beran had singled.

Loveland improves to 9-3 in the ECC, 15-5 overall.

Pitching: Albin W, 2-1 Hitting: Lakes 3-4, 2B
