BEAVER — The Forks baseball team got a great pitching performance from Carson Windle, who struck out seven and allowed no earned runs in an 8-7 win over Kingston.
The Spartans had to hang on for dear life to win, however. After Windle was taken out of the game, some Spartans errors allowed the Buccaneers to score six runs in the sixth inning, making the game close at the end.
“We continued to play steady and worked the bases even after the big inning for Kingston. It’s definitely what I like to see from a younger team, there is no quit in them. We did a great job maintaining focus and scoring where we could,” said coach Jason Richard.
Dalton Kilmer led the way for the Spartans, going 3 for 4 with a triple, while Joseph Reaume scored three runs.
Forks (2-2) will next play at Port Townsend (1-0) in a nonleague game at 4:15 p.m. Friday. The Redhawks’ lone game so far this season was a 6-1 win over the Kingston JV.

Johnnie Young went 1 for 3 with a walk, two runs and an RBI and Brandon Barnett added a two-run single. Hayden Eaton was 1 for 3 with a walk and three stolen bases.

Bainbridge 10, Port Angeles 3
BAINBRIDGE — The Roughriders had a rough go of it with a solid-hitting Spartans squad in a nonleague contest on the road.
“Tough one tonight,” Port Angeles coach Karl Myers said. “We ran into a very offensive team, they had a bunch of really good hitters and they took advantage of mistakes.
“Our pitchers really competed hard, particularly Bo Bradow coming out for 2 1/3 scoreless innings [and] keeping us in the game.”
The Riders did pound out 10 hits in the game. Ethan Flodstrom was 3 for 4 with a double, a run and an RBI while Gavin Guerrero was 2 for 4 with a double and two runs.
Lucas Jarnagin also doubled and singled for Port Angeles.
“Offensively, we swung it well, [we] just couldn’t seem to find the clutch hit we needed to get us back into the game. Overall though, we had a lot of positives to take from it and are going to learn from it going forward.”
The Riders (1-0, 2-3) host Sequim at Civic Field at 6:30 p.m. Thursday.
