Twins buzz Lakers, Loggers

The Glacier Twins A picked up a pair of wins last week.

Glacier hammered the Kalispell Lakers A team Thursday, 11-1. The Twins shot out to a 5-0 lead in the first inning and never looked back.

AJ Wetsch got the win on the mound at Memorial Field, holding Kalispell to one run on seven hits, as he went the distance.

Jesse Walburn was 2 for 2 from the plate with three RBIs and Jayce Fagerland was 2 for 2 with one RBI. Colten Parker went 2 for 4 as the Twins racked up 11 hits.

On Monday, the Twins scored 11 runs in the seventh inning to crush the Libby Loggers.

Vinnie Smith went 3 for 5 and drove in four runs for the streaky Twins, who have now won four straight after losing seven in a row. James Sampson-Keck and A.J. Wetsch both had three RBI, as did Tristan Steinwand.

Wetsch picked up his second victory on the mound in a week. He went five innings, allowed seven hits, walked three and struck out three.

Glacier (13-8 overall, 6-0 league) plays at Libby again on Wednesday for a single game.
