In a pivotal game of the regular season, the Spearfish Sasquatch showed the kind of performance they are capable of putting together every night.
Starting pitcher Kenji Miller pitched a shutout performance on the mound, and the Sasquatch offense brought the rain in a 10-0 victory over the Casper Horseheads on Tuesday night.
Coming into the night with a three-game losing streak after losing game one against Casper, the Sasquatch put those losses behind them, dominating from the first pitch on both sides of the ball.
The Sasquatch tallied ten runs on twelve hits, pulling nine runs across in the first four innings. First baseman Harrison Clark went 3-for-3 with two RBI’s and a walk on the night, extending his hot performance at the plate. Coming into game two, Clark was hitting 7-for-13 in his last few games.
Right fielder Nicky Winterstein and center fielder Bryson Hoier both hit 2-for-4 at the plate to contribute to the Spearfish onslaught. Winterstein drove in two runs, as well.
In his last start for the Sasquatch this season, Kenji Miller was electric working late into the game. Miller went 6 1/3 innings of shutout ball, allowing only four hits and striking out nine Horsehead hitters. Miller’s nine strikeouts were the most he’s had this season.
Miller, a pitcher for Everett Community College, ended his Sasquatch campaign with a 2-1 record and an impressive 2.63 ERA through four starts.
After losing game one to the Horseheads Monday night, the Sasquatch fired back on Tuesday and created a very comfortable lead early into the game.
The Sasquatch improve to 8-5 in the second half of regular season play, and they look to continue their momentum on the road as they face off against the Western Nebraska Pioneers for the first time this season on Wednesday afternoon.
