LISBON LEAVES EAST FEELING BLUE

LISBON, OH- Brady Carpenter was on a roll, snagging three hits as the Lisbon Blue Devils steamrolled East 10-0 on Friday. Carpenter set the tone with singles in the first, fourth, and fifth innings, proving to be a key player in the lineup.

The Blue Devils hit the scoreboard first in the second inning, capitalizing on a fielder’s choice by Gage Owens that allowed a run to score, despite a tough pitch from Francisco Rodriguez Santos. The real damage came in the fourth inning, where the Blue Devils hammered out five runs on five hits. Contributions came from Ryan Carpenter with a double, Aiden Myers grounding out to bring in a run, and Bryce Esarey and Marc Moore each adding singles that scored runs.

On the mound, Brady Carpenter was just as impressive, shutting down East with a one-hit, zero-run performance over five innings, where he struck out nine and walked three. Rodriguez Santos, on the other hand, struggled a bit for East, giving up six runs (two earned) across four innings.

The Blue Devils were sharp throughout, tallying ten hits with Moore picking up two of them. They kept it clean in the field too, not making a single error, with Logan Sturgeon leading with four defensive plays.

For East, Jordan Brown managed their only hit, going 1-for-1, while Oscar Agosto nabbed two bases.

Next up, the Lisbon Blue Devils are headed to Lowellville on Saturday, looking to carry their momentum forward.
