The Timberlake Tigers swept the Bonners Ferry
Badgers in an IML baseball doubleheader last
Saturday 10-5 and 8-3. The losses move the
Badgers record to 5-8 overall and 0-3 league.
In the first game, Timberlake scored three runs
in the first inning on two Badger errors.
Bonners Ferry came back with four runs in the
top of the second inning to take a brief lead
when Mat Kramer reached on an error and later
scored on an RBI single by Vince Bennett.
After Cade Umphenhour’s walk and Bennett’s
single, John Brown hit an RBI single to score
Umphenhour. Bennett and Brown later scored on a
two run double by Garrett Skeen.
In the bottom of the second, Timberlake tied the
game 4-4 with a RBI single from Austin Allen.
The Badgers added a run in the top of the third
after Kramer reached on a fielder’s choice and
scored on a RBI single from Jesse Woods.
Timberlake added two runs in their half of the
third and three runs in the fifth inning to
eventually win 10-5. Garrett Skeen and Mike
Clarkson each had doubles in the game. Clarkson
took the loss on the mound.
In the second game, the Badgers scored two early
runs when leadoff hitter Garrett Skeen and
Connor Bennett hit back to back doubles. Will
Weir hit a RBI single to score Bennett.
But the Tigers roared back with five runs in
their half of the first inning on only three
hits. Timberlake added two more runs in the
second after Mason Cramer hit a triple and
scored on Austin Allen’s RBI single. Allen
scored on Trevor Masterson’s first of three
doubles in the game.
Bonners Ferry scored a single run in the top of
the third inning after Weir walked and later
scored on Caleb Blackmore’s RBI single. Skeen,
Connor Bennett and Jesse Woods each had doubles
in the game.
The Badgers play their final home games next
Saturday, hosting Kellogg on senior day. Come
