Local walks it off
Local 155’s Alex Angevine doubled home Brian Belbin for the winning run in a 5-4 Olympic Junior Babe Ruth win over Westport on Wednesday.
Cole Beeman got the start on the mound for Local 155, going 3 1/3 striking out eight, allowing no hits. Beeman gave way to Angevine, who finished the game with six strikeouts and scattered two hits.
Great defense was on display, highlighted by a ground ball fielded by Angevine in the hole at shortstop and throwing the runner out at first to end the threat, a diving catch by Belbin with runners on and a hard grounder at third fielded by Brandt Perry and gunned to first for the out.
