Indians open with loss to Flyers
MARIA STEIN, Ohio — The Indians just got back from the state tournament in the early hours of Monday morning. On their run to the state championship game, they had to take down the Flyers in the district final.
Coming back for the summer season, the Flyers got their revenge.
Less than 24 hours after competing in the state tournament, the Fort Recovery ACME baseball team dropped its season opener via walk off to the Marion Local Flyers 6-5 on Monday.
The Indians (0-1) jumped out with two runs in the first inning on a double by Mason Diller before eventually trailing 5-3 in the seventh. With two outs, third baseman Caden Grisez singled to left field to score Dylan Klenke and Austin Siegrist, tying the game up and forcing extra innings.
After throwing two strong innings in the sixth and seventh, Klenke started to unravel on the mound in the eighth. He gave up a leadoff triple before an infield single and a walk loaded the bases with no outs in the tie game. Damon Cramer followed with a single up the middle to walk off the game against Fort Recovery.
