Jack Hoene singled and Kaden Fearday followed with a double to start the inning. The first run scored on a wild pitch and the second on a sacrifice fly by Davis Tingley. Colton Fearday then walked and Kennan Walsh ripped an RBI triple. St. Anthony then received three straight walks and scored its final two runs on passed balls.
Logan Antrim went the first four innings and got the win. He allowed only one run and one hit, while walking five and striking out seven.
Altamont returned the favor in the second game, tallying five times in the bottom of the fifth to take control of the game.
The two teams were tied 1-1 after three innings. The Indians then scored one run in the fourth and combined three hits, three walks and two Bulldog errors to cross the plate five times in the fifth.
St. Anthony got a sacrifice fly by Aaron Webb in the sixth and an RBI single by Angelo Mendella in the seventh, following another triple by Walsh.
Seth Hotze was the starter and loser for the Bulldogs. He went 4.2 innings and allowed five hits and seven runs. He also walked four and struck out three.
