YOU WANT A PIECE OF ME?
Yet another team cowers in fear of the mighty Fishermen.
A scheduled doubleheader against Taft never happened on Tuesday, as the Tigers cancelled at the last minute. Taft also never rescheduled a rained out game against Astoria in the spring despite a couple of opportunities.
That makes four cancellations so far this summer season for the reigning 3A state champs, beginning with "The Great Warrenton Smoke-Out" the first week of the season, which will be rescheduled.
All credit goes to Ilwaco for stepping in to play Astoria Ford yesterday. The visiting Fishermen took their lumps, falling 22-0 in four innings of game one. Astoria scored nine runs in the first inning and followed with a 13-spot, batting around twice in the second.
Leadoff man Brent Culver went 2-for-2 with three runs and three RBI's and Brendan Landwehr went 3-for-3 with a double, two runs scored and three RBI's in the rout. Mathias Brause and Hans Lund limited Ilwaco to two hits, including a double by Anthony Wirkkala.
Astoria cruised to an 11-nothing game two win in five innings as Nick Bredleau and Jared Rummell combined on the shutout.
Astoria will expect to get some real competition this weekend when they play in a tournament at Corvallis. They will also be severely shorthanded with football players at camp and top pitcher Brause limited by a 4H committment.
Astoria takes on Auburn-Riverside (a California school apparently, not the Washington 4A school) at 5:00 p.m. Friday at Hanson Field, adjacent to Corvallis High. Saturday, Astoria faces Yakima at 5:00 p.m. and the host team at 8:00 p.m. Teams will be seeded into brackets for Sunday competition.
Ilwaco's next scheduled game is at home against Warrenton on Tuesday.
