Steel Valley Storm

CORTLAND, OH- Lisbon couldn’t keep pace with Maplewood, dropping the game 9-0 on Thursday.

Maplewood came out swinging in the bottom of the first, with Gabe Erwin smashing a double to bring in a run followed by Tyson Webster ripping a triple to knock in two more. They didn’t let up in the second, with another double from Erwin, an error, and a Marshall Eloph single further padding their lead.

Coleton Logan was on fire for Maplewood, tossing six innings of three-hit ball, striking out 13, and keeping Lisbon scoreless. On the flip side, Bryce Esarey struggled for Lisbon, allowing nine runs over four and a third innings, though only seven were earned.

Esarey, Aiden Myers, and Brady Carpenter managed a hit each for Lisbon, which wasn’t nearly enough to challenge Maplewood’s defense, which was flawless on the day.

Maplewood racked up 10 hits. Erwin and Webster both had a hot bat, with Erwin driving in three runs. The Maplewood lineup also showed great discipline, drawing eight walks, thanks in part to Kenyan Clover’s three. Maplewood played a tight game defensively, with Webster getting involved in 13 plays, helping to keep their field error-free.

Lisbon’s season comes to an end with a final record of 11-9-1.
