| Posted Jul 15/13 - Lakers Win and Lose Over Weekend |
| The Waconia Lakers let Friday night's game slip away against the Hamburg Hawks. After tying the game in the 5th inning at two a piece the Lakers struck again to take a 3-2 lead after Eric Aeling's rbi single to center. Chris Bullis pitched well the whole game, but with 2 outs in the 9th inning Hamburg started their rally with a single to right. After an error by Waconia put runners on 2nd and 3rd, a passed ball tied the game followed by a go ahead single for Hamburg. Jeff Chrest then started the Laker 9th with a lead off double then advanced to third on a balk. With no outs the Lakers weren't able to get a clutch hit to score the tying run and lost 4-3. The Lakers only had 7 hits on the night and had three rallies squashed by double plays. Chris Bullis threw a complete game and only gave up 2 earned runs while striking out 6. The Lakers got an outstanding pitching performance from Craig LaPlante in a 10-0 shutout over the St. Boni Saints. LaPlante went 6 innings in the shortened game only giving up one base hit that was inches from going foul and stuck out 7. "I haven't pitched without a beard this year, which seemed to help my curveball and location on my fastball," the Detroit native said on his performance. The Lakers struck quickly scoring 8 of their 10 runs in the first 2 innings. Eric Aeling was the key contributor going 3-3 with 2 rbi's in the game. Robbie Smothers, Ronnie Olson and Train Lyons all had 2 hits with Lyons adding 3 rbi's. After the weekend split the Lakers are now 16-4 overall on the season. They play the Brownton Bruins at Brownton on Wednesday night. |
