In a day of solid pitching performances, Ryan Smith (Chemeketa CC, Black Hills) wouldn’t be outdone in the nightcap for the Olympia Athletics. Smith pitched seven innings and gave up just one earned run on five hits A’s in their 6-1 win over the West Olympia Linx.

The A’s drew first blood in the second inning when Drew Fosnes (Green River CC) was hit bay a pitch, advanced to second on a wild pitch, stole third base and scored on an error. Bret Bitow (Saint Martin’s) drove in what turned out to be the winning run in the third inning to take a 2-0 lead.
