Gold Squad Claims Purple & Gold World Series With 11-2 Romp
October 26, 2017 | Baseball
SEATTLE Β β Β The Gold squad used a five-run first inning and four-run second to propel themselves to a runaway 11-2 victory over Purple in game two of the annual Purple and Gold World Series Thursday at Husky Ballpark. Gold also won the first game of the series, 6-3, on Tuesday.
Β
Willie MacIver, Jack Johnson and Jonathan Schiffer had three hits apiece to pace the Gold's 17-hit attack.
Β
The offensive outpouring helped propel Stevie Emanuels to a victory on the mound. The freshman allowed five hits and two runs over four innings.
Β
MacIver got the offense going for the Gold squad in the first with a three-run homer to give the visiting team a 3-0 lead before an out was even recorded. They would tack on a run on a RBI double by freshman Kaiser Weiss and RBI single from freshman Noah Hsue.
Β
Sophomore Christian Jones kept the good times rolling for the Gold squad with a three-run homer and Johnson followed Jones with a solo shot to make the score 9-1.
Β
Weiss would add on a two run single in the fifth inning to give him three RBI on the day.
Β
The Purple squad had six hits and got on the board in the first and second innings.
Β
Braiden Ward walked in the first, stole second and eventually scored on a two-out double by Mason Cerrillo. Ward drove home the other run for Purple with a RBI single, scoring Nick Roberts from third with two outs in the second.
Β
Gold earns the crown as Fall Ball champions of the Purple and Gold World Series, but the two team will play again tomorrow at 4:20 p.m.
