Winner/Colome club baseball team closed out the regular season with a 2-1 victory over Platte-Geddes Friday afternoon at Leahy
Bowl in Winner.
The Royals ended the regular season with a 10-2 record. They started playoff action on May 26 when they hosted Todd County.
Levi McClanahan’s two run triple in the fifth inning was responsible for the Royal’s two runs.
Platte-Geddes opened the scoring with a run earlier in the game.
Reed Harter added a double. Kelly O’Bryan, Holden Thieman and Ty Bolton all had hits for Winner/Colome.
“We were fortunate to win this game as we did not hit the ball very well,” said coach Drew Weber.
“We had a few miscues in the field that we have not had much this year. Levi came through with a big hit and our pitching staff did a great job of getting out of some big jams,” added the coach.
Kelly O’Bryan started on the mound for the Royals and pitched two innings. Carter Brickman threw two innings in relief. Reed Harter got the win with three innings in relief.
The victory allowed Winner/Colome to earn the No. 1 seed for the divisional playoffs. “Now is the time that we will need to play our best,” said Weber.
