AMERICAN LEGION: Wilder Sr. gets great pitching in pair of wins

MOUNT VERNON — Wilder Sr. won its opening two games at the Nate Steffens Baseball Tournament in Mount Vernon behind outstanding pitching in both games.

Wilder Sr. allowed just four hits and two runs combined in the pair of victories. The Olympic Peninsula club won Saturday 8-1 in a combined two-hitter over the Rival Baseball Club and 9-1 in five innings over the Laces Baseball Academy in a complete-game two-hitter from Adam Watkins.
