SEQUIM — The Port Angeles baseball team got big games from Nate Basden and Alex Angevine and was able to beat Sequim for the second time in a week in another hard-fought game 7-4 in Sequim.
Basden went 3-for-3 with a double, four runs scored, an RBI and a stolen base while Angevine was 4-for-5 with a triple, two RBIs, a run scored and a stolen base.
On the mound, the Roughriders used a total of five pitchers, saving their best pitchers Colton Romero and Brian Guttormsen. The quintet of Brayden Martin, Hunter Stratford, Maeson Grice, Angevine and Rylan Politika struck out nine and allowed six hits.
For Sequim, Zeke Schmadeke pitched most of the game, going 4⅓ innings and allowing six hits and three earned runs. He struck out five. Brayden White went 2⅔ innings, allowing five hits and two earned runs while striking our four.
