BLUE DEVILS PROD WELLSVILLE

LISBON, OH- Lisbon rolled to a convincing 14-3 win over Wellsville on Thursday, thanks to some heavy lifting from the bottom of their lineup. Carter Oliver, Logan Sturgeon, and Marc Moore turned the game around, combining for five of Lisbon’s 10 hits, scoring four runs, and driving in four.

Wellsville initially took the lead with a two-run wild pitch in the first inning, and they tacked on another run in the second when Tyler was hit by a pitch.

Lisbon quickly turned things around in the bottom of the second. Moore, Oliver, and a dropped third strike brought in a total of four runs, pushing Lisbon ahead 5-3. They didn’t let up, adding more runs in the third off a passed ball and another RBI single from Moore.

The fourth inning saw Lisbon break the game wide open, scoring five runs from hits by Ryan Carpenter, Aiden Myers, Bryce Esarey, Sturgeon, and another double from Moore.

Sturgeon picked up the win, pitching three and two-thirds innings of no-hit ball, striking out five. Myers started the game for Lisbon, and despite a rocky start, the team bounced back. Richie, Wellsville’s starter, struggled through four innings, allowing 13 runs, but only eight were earned.

Moore was the standout for Lisbon, going three-for-three at the plate. Oliver and Esarey also contributed significantly, each with two RBIs. Lisbon showed patience at the plate, drawing six walks, with Gage Owens and Carpenter each walking twice. The team was aggressive on the bases, stealing eight in total.

Defensively, Lisbon was solid, committing no errors with Carpenter getting the most action with six fielding chances.

Lisbon’s next challenge is a game against East this Friday.
