Albion rally falls short in 18U diamond game

A late inning rally fell just short as Albion dropped a narrow 5-4 decision to visiting Pavilion in a GLOW League 18U Division baseball game Tuesday evening.

Trailing 5-1, Albion cut the deficit to just one by rallying for three runs in the sixth inning on an RBI double by Gavin Boyce and RBI singles by Kaiden Froman and Drew Pritchard. However, Albion could not plate the equalizer as the bases were left loaded.

Pritchard, Elliott Trapiss and Drew Boyce each had a pair of hits on the evening as Albion out hit Pavilion 9-2.

Pritchard, Drew Boyce and Jayden Plummer combined to hurl the 2 hitter for Albion with a total of 14 strikeouts.

Albion, which next visits Alden on Thursday, is now 3-1-1.

Alden 7, Lyndonville 2
Lyndonville scored two quick runs in the first inning on a fielders choice play and a walk but could not cross home plate again as host Alden claimed a 7-2 win in another GLOW League contest.

A two-run single by Sam Dunlap evened the score in the second inning and Alden quickly moved on top to stay by scoring once in the third on a wild pitch and twice in the fourth on an error and a groundout.

CJ Dix had Lyndonville’s only hit as Alden hurlers registered 11 strikeouts.

Lyndonville, which next visits Tri-Town on Thursday, is now 0-4-1.
