Posted May 29/12 - Heron Lake 3, Tracy 2

HERON LAKE — Thomas Albrecht delivered a gamewinning RBI single up the middle in the bottom of the eighth Sunday afternoon, driving in Kirk McBreen from second base to lift the Heron Lake Lakers to an extra-inning victory over the Tracy Express in the opener of a First Nite/Gopher League amateur baseball doubleheader at Laker Field

Albrecht, who pitched the final 2 2/3 innings and struck out five of the nine batters he faced while allowing no runs, no hits and one walk to earn the win on the mound, also doubled and finished 2-for-2 at the plate in the scheduled seven-inning affair.

Alex Meyer (double), Lucas Knutson (RBI) and Ethan Duffy (RBI triple) also smacked two hits apiece for Heron Lake, while McBreen, Matt Franks and Octavio Jimenez each collected a base hit, as well.

Franks pitched the first 5 1/3 innings, allowing just two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out four batters in a quality start for Heron Lake.

Tylan Gylling (three strikeouts, six walks) pitched a complete game for Tracy, while Andrew Mathiowetz (RBI), Andrew Suby, Jason Minett (RBI double) and Greg Barnes each smacked a base hit for the Express.

Tracy claimed a 9-7 victory over Windom later in the day at Heron Lake.
