Badrock U15 tops B Loggers, 17-5

Jun. 28—Logan Stewart hit two inside-the-park home runs, Ashtyn Mintz hit another and the Badrock Baseball U15 squad scored a 17-5 win over the Libby B Loggers Thursday at the inaugural Badrock Invitational baseball tournament at Glacier Bank Park.

In one of four games played Thursday, Badrock prevailed thanks in large part to crooked numbers in the third and fifth innings. Mintz led off a nine-run fifth inning with his homer, and Stewart's second round-tripper scored the last two runs of the frame.

Badrock scored six times in the third, getting a two-run single from Luke Dalen and also an RBI single from Mintz and a two-run homer from Stewart, to lead 7-0.

Libby scored all of its runs in the bottom of the third inning, with Mason Crowe hitting a three-run triple to key the outburst. Brayson Orr had an RBI single in the inning as well.

Logan Cuffe drove in two runs for Badrock while Drew Queen and Will Sasson had one RBI each. Dalen had three RBIs, Stewart had four. Reyd Hobert hit a triple and he, Mintz and Stewart all scored three runs.

Cullen Wallace threw a five-inning complete game for Badrock, allowing three hits and a walk and striking out seven.

The eight-team tournament continues Friday and Saturday and concludes with a championship game at 4 p.m. Sunday at Glacier Bank Park.
