CROOKSTON AMERICAN LEGION BASEBALL OUT-DUALS WIN-E-MAC

The Crookston American Legion Nels T. Wold Post 20 baseball team only mustered two hits, but they had a terrific pitching performance from Brooks Butt and solid defense behind him in a 2-0 victory over Win-E-Mac in a game played at Jim Karn Field in Crookston.

Crookston got on the board in the bottom of the first inning when Alex Longoria walked, stole second and advanced to third on a ground out.  Longoria scored on a Brooks Butt sacrifice line drive to center field for a 1-0 lead without a hit.  

Crookston added another run in the third inning when Longoria had a one-out triple to the left-center field gap for the first Crookston hit of the game.  Jacob Miller followed with the only other Crookston hit in the game to drive in Longoria for a 2-0 lead.  

Crookston only had two baserunners in the final three innings, but Brooks Butt didn’t need anymore help as he pitched a gem.  Win-E-Mac only had two hits in the final four innings and Butt struck out six in the game, while only walking one.

Crookston improves to 7-7 on the year and will host Fosston for a double-header on Thursday before they travel to Dickinson, North Dakota for a tournament this weekend.  The double-header scheduled for Wednesday evening against Kennedy has been canceled.
