’Riders rough up Tribe
ST. MARYS, Ohio — One inning was all the Roughriders needed to hand the Tribe baseball team its fourth loss of the season.
St. Marys Memorial, which finished 15th in this week’s Division III voted, scored eight runs in the second inning Monday in an 8-1 defeat of Division IV No. 3 Fort Recovery.
Memorial (17-5) touched up FRHS starter Jacob Homan for seven hits, and took advantage of three walks to score eight runs — three earned — in the second frame.
Fort Recovery (21-4) got one run back in the top of the fourth on an RBI single by Nathan Lochtefeld, but it wasn’t able to put together much else in the way of offense.
Derek Backs had two singles to lead the Indians, who got base hits from Mitch Stammen, Chase Bruns and Ben Will. Stammen also stole one base — his 25th of the season — and is two shy of his single-season record set last year.
