Show c Citizen - Thursday, August 11, 1983 - Page 10 PL Grove outshines non-league rivals in Am. Legion baseball By DEAN VON MEMMOTT In the last few days, Pleasant Grove's American Legion baseball team has been showing squads north of Point of the Mountain that the folks down here aren't novices to baseball. Pleasant Grove pitcher Kyle Hardman made that point pretty clear in his team's 9-2 win over tlie Alta Hawks in an opening-round game of the state tournament up at Ken Price Park in Murray Monday afternoon. A recruit from' Snow College, the former American Fork Caveman struck out 12 men in the game and permitted only five hits. According to Pleasant Grove Coach Scott Eldredge, Hardman was also devastating with the bat. Coming up at bat when the score was tied at two in the bottom of the fifth, the pitcher hit a three-run homer to break the game wide open. He hit a two-run homer a little while later. Eldredge said other big Pleasant Grove hits in the game were doubles by Mike Davis and Lance Gleave. According to the coach, Pleasant Grove had a total of 11 hits against Alta. The win against Alta came six days after the loss the Hawks handed Pleasant Grove a 9-5 loss at Provo's Timp Park. The Tuesday game was supposed to have been played at American Fork's Rotary Park, but the park diamond was too muddy to play on. Therefore, the game was moved to Provo, where Pleasant Grove played good for the first seven innings, in-nings, then fell to pieces in the eighth, allowing the Hawks to fly victoriously back to Sandy. In the top of the first, Pleasant Grove catcher Clark Hill fired a pass to third baseman Brock Knight to nail Scott Anderson who was trying to steal the base. Soon after that Alta setback, though, Jeff Walbech singled in Troy Cook. Under the leadership of pitcher Randy Doyle, Pleasant Grove kept Alta from flying too far ahead in the first. Hitting a single off Hawk pitcher Steve Hardy in the bottom of the second, Doyle drove in Knight to tie the game at one. Hill singled in Mike Davis to break the tie in the third. Knight brought the Pleasant Grove catcher home on a single to right field near the end of the inning. The game remained scoreless until the top of the sixth. Hawk Sandy came home on Troy Wiler-son's Wiler-son's sacrifice at first. Cook then batted in Randy Rogers to tie the game at three. Pleasant Grove's stiff defense prevented the Hawks from pulling ahead in the sixth. Lance Gleave came home on a bad throw to first in the bottom of the sixth to break the tie. Hill soon scored on a wild pitch soon afterwards. af-terwards. Having relieved Doyle at the mound in the fifth, Gleave was able to keep Alta at bay until the eighth inning. Suddenly a bad throw to third by Hill allowed Hatch to come home, starting a big rally, highlighted by Garrett Histaki's two run single, which got Gleave pulled from the mound. By the time the rally was over, the Hawks had scored six runs. Allowing only two Pleasant Grove walks in the bottom of the eighth, Hawk reliever Kurt Schafer struck out three men to secure Alta's win. P.G. vs. Bountiful With Rotary's diamond ready to be played on the next night, Pleasant Grove rebounded from the loss with a 17-7 win over Bountiful. By the way the first inning went, Bountiful seemed certain of being the one to walk away with a lopsided lop-sided win. Aided by Eric Johnson's two-run homer, Bountiful zipped out to a 5-0 lead. Besides being hot on offense, Pleasant Grove's guest was also hot on defense, for right after Charlie Baldridge hit a single in the bottom of the first, Bountiful produced a double play. Apparently to prevent another Bountiful rally, Pleasant Grove sent pitcher Knight to first and had right fielder Doyle throw for the rest of the game. Doyle allowed only two Bountiful runs. Pleasant Grove opened a big rally in the bottom of the second when Brian Greening hauled Knight in with a single. Pleasant Grove scored three more runs in the in- triple at Johnson - Miller's His run ning, making the game a barnburner. Rapping a center-field the start of the third, sprinted home on Art center-field sacrifice fly. was buried in a Pleasant Grove comeback, which put Doyle's team ahead 7-6 at the end of the third. Hitting his second - the game, Johnson came ijuiiu, ... ' ett Balderson's fifth inning single to tie the game at seven. The tie was broken by Baldridge's one-run double. More hits, such as Hill's triple, enabled Pleasant Grove to score five runs in the fifth and five more in the sixth. When center fielder Greening tagged Miller's fly in the seventh, Bountiful had to return home a humbled team. Pleasant Grove finished out its interconference campaign with a 7-3 win over Deep Creek Farms of Midvale at Rotary Park Thursday night. The Pleasant Grovers came quite close, however, to forfeiting the game, for they did not have all their regulars on hand. Fortunately, they were able to dig up two Pleasant Grove Colt League players to play for them. Pleasant Grove went on offense in the top of the first. Tim Chambers scored the game's first run that inning while two of his teammates got caught in a Deep Creek double play. In the bottom of the first, Deep Creek's Glen Evans singled in Mike American Fork Football Football uniforms for the 1984 American Fork High Cavemen will be issued Saturday, Aug. 13, at the high school according to the following schedule: Seniors, 7:00 a.m.; Juniors, 8:00 a.m.; Sophomores, 9:00 a.m. According to Coach Davis Knight, Picture Day will follow at 10:30 a.m. with team pictures and individual pictures.
