Roundup: South Kitsap baseball jumps all over Graham-Kapowsin in first league game
Published 1:30 am Wednesday, March 21, 2018
GRAHAM — Torre DiGiovanni and Jason Sauer each drove in three runs as South Kitsap (2-1) trounced Graham-Kapowsin (2-2) in its first league game, 12-0, in five innings.
After the Wolves scored five runs in the top of the first, junior Jacob Duarte settled in on the mound, shutting out the Eagles over five innings, allowing just three hits and one walk while striking out nine.
Head coach Marcus Logue said the offense went a little flat in the third and fourth, but South Kitsap would end up going home early thanks to a five-run fifth inning that included a bases clearing double by DiGiovanni.
