BOX SCORE: GAME 2 

Cavs Fall in 12th to Yotes

PORTLAND, Ore.—Coming back to tie the game in the seventh and again in the 11th, Concordia couldn’t match The College of Idaho in the 12th as the Yotes defeated the Cavs 6-5 in NAIA West Region action Sunday afternoon at Joe Etzel Field.

With the win, C of I improved to 12-5 with a 2-1 record in NAIA West Region play. Concordia fell to 3-18 overall and 1-2 in league play.

With the Yotes up 3-2 in the seventh, Concordia managed to tie the game on a sacrifice fly from Tommy Whalen. The score remained unchanged until the 11th when C of I’s Jye Lanphere connected on a two-out single to left center to score a pair of Yotes.

The Cavs hit three singles in the bottom half of the tenth and utilized an error to even the game at 5-5, but Lamphere returned with a solo shot over the left-field fence for the go-ahead run.

Concordia’s Ryan Kolstad reached via an error to start the home half of the 12th and was nearly picked off in the next at bat as Andrew Reid rocketed a ball to C of I second baseman Ray Santiago, but Kolstad was able to make it back to the bag to avoid the double play.

The new life would prove to be short lived as Yote reliever Bobby Wassman was able to generate a double play to the shortstop to end the game.

Lanphere ended the game with three RBI after going 3-of-6 at the plate. Teammate Diego Robles went 4-for-6 as the team tallied 16 total hits.

The Cavs registered 13 hits with Kolstad, Calvin Nagy, Mike Dickman and Tony Flanagan each collecting a pair of hits.

C of I starter Chad Yeggy lasted six innings before being relieved by Mitchell Dame. Wassman picked up the win by tossing the final two frames where he allowed one hit and two walks.

Josh O’Gorman gave up three runs on 11 hits in 9.0 solid innings of work as the CU starter. 

Yotes Take Series with 5-2 Win

PORTLAND, Ore.—After picking up the win by pitching the final two innings in the opener College of Idaho’s Bobby Wassman pitched a complete-game seven-inning game in the nightcap as the Yotes defeated Concordia 5-2 to sweep the Cavs.

With the two wins, the Yotes won the four-game series with CU, 3-1.

A one-out single by Izaac Garsez turned into an early run for the Yotes as Kyle Douglas blasted a double to right field for a 1-0 led in the first. The Yotes added a run in the fourth when Ray Santiago delivered on a sacrifice fly to left to send Douglass home.

In the home half of the fourth, the Cavaliers got on the board with a run by Jon Houts, who reached on an infield single, with the aid of a wild pitch.

The Yotes however added some separation in the fifth with a pair of runs on just one hit. Jordan Lanman opened the inning with a walk and was moved to second when Garsez was hit by a pitch. Diego Robles followed with an RBI single to left and Jarel Lewis capped the inning with a sacrifice fly to center field to send Garsez home.

Each team added a run with CU’s Tony Flanagan getting an RBI on a fielder’s choice in the sixth and Lewis nabbing another RBI with a hit by pitch with the bases loaded in the seventh.

Wassman gave up just two runs, only one of which were earned, and seven hits in the seven-inning contest for his second win of the day. CU starter Griffon Waller took the loss after lasting 6.1 innings.

Concordia outhit the Yotes 7-6 with Tim Reavis and Sean Myrom leading the way with 2-for-4 performances at the plate.

Garsez and Robles both had two hits for the Yotes with Garsez scoring three of the team’s five runs.
