FF Legion overcomes Pelican
Published Tuesday, July 1, 2008
Conner Kerr and Derek Hansen had big night at the plate Monday as the Fergus Falls Post 30 American Legion crew overcame Pelican Rapids 11-7 in a nine-inning game.
Chris Winter’s Fergus squad rapped out 18 hits against Pelican Rapids.
Kerr was 3-for-5 at the plate with a double, a triple and five RBIs. Hansen doubled three times, scored twice and drove in one run. Matt Duenow was 2-for-5 and scored three runs. Kris Anderson went 2-for-3.
Ryan Morgan had a perfect night at the plate for Pelican Rapids. Morgan went 4-for-4 and scored once. Tydan Storrusten drove in a pair of runs.
The two clubs went into the fourth tied at 2-all. Pelican Rapids jumped ahead 4-2 in the top half of the inning but Post 30 countered with four runs in the bottom half of the fourth for a lead the Fergus crew never surrendered.
Alex Kvidt started on the hill for Post 30. Kvidt lasted 4 1/3 innings, walking two and fanning seven. Joe Anderson came up in the fifth to fire two innings and earn the victory. Anderson is now 2-2. Duenow pitched the final two frames for the save.
Alex Johnson was hung with the loss.
“Everyone hit the ball real well tonight,” said Winter.
The Fergus Falls Legion will travel to Morris Tuesday for a 6:30 p.m. game.
