PORT TOWNSEND — Port Angeles pitchers Ethan Flodstrom, Brady Shimko and Andrew Pena combined to throw a perfect game in a 12-0 victory in five innings over Port Townsend at Flint Field.
Flodstrom, Shimko and Pena also combined for a total of 10 strikeouts. Flodstrom struck out five in two innings, Shimko had two strikeouts in two innings and Pena three in two innings. Flodstrom, a freshman, was credited with the win.
“The pitchers did a great job throwing strikes all day long, it was great to see them all pitch with confidence their first times out this season,” said coach Karl Myers.
The game was actually fairly close until the fourth inning, when the Rider bats erupted for a 6-run inning. Luke Angevine went 1-1 with a three-run home run, the first of his career, and he narrowly missed his second home run with a sacrifice fly to the wall for another RBI.
Joel Wood also had two hits for the Riders and an RBI, while Colton McGuffey had a double and an RBI. Anthony Quinones stole two bases.
Port Angeles (2-1, 1-0) is next scheduled to play at 4:15 p.m. today at undefeated Sequim.
It was only Port Townsend’s (0-2) second game of the year and their first game since March 22. The Redhawks are scheduled to play at 4:15 p.m. today at Bremerton, though the forecast calls for rain in Kitsap County.
