Walk-off ends Tribe’s season

COLDWATER, Ohio — Luke Fortkamp’s single pulled the Tribe even with the Cavaliers in the top of the seventh inning, but the game quickly fell apart for the Indians in the bottom half.

The Fort Recovery ACME baseball team fell to Coldwater 9-8 on Tuesday as a walk-off error ended the season.

Entering the top of the seventh, Fort Recovery (5-4) trailed by one run. Colson Post smashed a double to put himself in scoring position and Fortkamp delivered the single to tie the game.

In the bottom half of the inning, Dylan Klenke walked the first batter before third baseman Caden Homan committed an error. The third hitter bunted for a single and the fourth smacked a grounder to Alex Gaerke at shortstop, which resulted in an error to end the game.

Klenke and Brodie Hart led the offense with two RBIs apiece. Klenke suffered the loss despite only giving up one earned run over 4 ⅓ innings.
