Olympia’s Champlin nearly perfect

Jun 9

Posted by

ChamplinOlympia High School alum Kramer Champlin made his first start of the season on Saturday night for the single-A Lansing Lugnuts in a seven inning game two of a doubleheader against the West Michigan Whitecaps in Comstock Park, Michigan.

Champlin, a 6-foot-6 right-hander who was drafted by the Toronto Blue Jays in the 33rd round of the 2011 draft out of Arizona State, had retired all 18 batters that he faced through six innings and entered the final inning of the game with a 2-0 lead and a perfect game on the line.

He made quick work of the Whitecaps’ Zach Kirksey, who lined out to left field on the first pitch and then struck out Jered Reaves for the second out of the inning. With just one out to go to perfection, Devon Travis hit a tough chopper that ate up shortstop Emilio Guerrero on a short hop, went under his glove and bounced into left field.

So, with the perfect game off the table but a no-hitter still a possibility, you make the call, is this a hit or an error? Watch the video by clicking here.

It’s a tough call, but the the official scorer gave Travis a base hit, ending Champlin’s bid for a no-hitter. Lugnuts play-by-play announcer, Jesse Goldberg-Strasser, described Lansing players throwing up their hands in disgust and looking up to the press box following the play, obviously rooting for that to go down as an error.

Champlin promptly struck out the next batter, his tenth strikeout of the game, to secure the complete game, one hit shutout in his seventh career start. He moved to 3-1 on the season and lowered his ERA by nearly a point from 4.01 before the game to 3.13.

His performance comes one day after another Olympia High School star pitched his best game of the season. Adam Conley, a second round pick of the Miami Marlins in the 2011 draft out of Washington State, struck out eight and gave up just one earned run on seven hits for the double-A Jacksonville Suns. He moved to 5-2 in 12 starts this season and lowered his ERA to 4.10.

TumwaterAberdeen82A WIAA semifinals
Tumwater vs. Archbishop Murphy – County Stadium, Yakima – 4:00 PM
Rained out, rescheduled for Saturday.

Tumwater comes into the semifinals as the clear underdog, advancing to the final four for the first time in school history.

They have won seven straight since that game including a pair of two run wins over White River and Lynden in the first two rounds on Monday. The Wildcats are led by four seniors, pitcher Derrick Mahlum (11-0, 0.65 ERA), pitcher and first baseman Zander Clouse (8-2, 1.21 ERA, .451 BA, 37 RBI) and shortstop Trever Morrison (.550 BA, 5 HRs, 46 runs).

4A West Central/Southwest Bi-District Tournament
Olympia 3, Puyallup 2
Tahoma 4, Olympia 1

Puyallup looked to have ended Olympia’s season on Monday afternoon after scoring a run when Bears’ Leticia Farias could not make a catch of a pop up after a Viking runner collided with her.

But after a lengthy delay, obstruction was called to end the inning and send the game to extra innings where Hailey Hull hit a sacrifice fly to score the game winning run and send Olympia to the state tournament in Spokane later this week.

Olympia lost a seeding game to Tahoma later in the day and will be the #7 seed from the district. They will take on Central Valley on Friday, May 24th at noon at the Merkel Sports Complex in Spokane.

It is the first state tournament appearance for the Bears since 2004.

3A West Central/Southwest Bi-District Tournament
Enumclaw 10, Timberline 4
Auburn Mountainview 16, Timberline 2

Timberline needed just one win to play in the 3A state tournament at The RAC beginning on Friday but could only manage six runs and saw their season come to an end at the Sprinker Recreation Center in Spananway.

4A State Tournament
Olympia 12, Lake Stevens 1
Kentwood 13, Olympia 7

Olympia scored ten runs in the top of the sixth and seventh innings and Elliot Loague went the distance to give the Bears a 12-1 win in the first round of the state tourney in Everett.

The Bears season came to an end in the quarterfinals with a 13-7 loss to Kentwood.


3A State Tournament
Mount Si 3, North Thurston 2

Tumwater 3, North Kitsap 0

Tumwater pulled a huge upset ending Fife’s season at 22-4 overall with a 4-1 victory at Yelm High School.
