Whitefish Baseball Sweeps Browning in Conference Double Header

The Whitefish High School Baseball team would play host to the Browning Indians for a double header, on Friday, at Smith Fields.

The Dawgs would pour it on offensively as they scored 40 total runs on the day.

Game 1:

Christian Schwaderer got his 1st start of the season and tossed 3 stellar innings. He walked a pair and struck out 9 batters.

Offensively, the Dawgs had it working. Whitefish would get on the board in the top of the 1st thanks to a Tait Orme Sacrifice Fly RBI.

Whitefish would score 4 more in the bottom of the second and scored 5 runs each in innings 3 and 4.

The Dawgs tallied 9 hits on the day. Ryan Conklin, Michael Miller and Avery Caton had 2 hits a piece.

Game 2:

The Whitefish Bulldogs would send out a slightly different line-up in the 2nd game of the twin bill, giving some of the youngsters a go at things.

This was a make-up from the game that was postponed earlier in the season, originally scheduled to be played in Browning.

The second game was also a conference contest, with Whitefish showing the confidence they have in their younger guys.

The Dawgs would take the nightcap by a final of 25-0.

Colin Sharpnack got the start for Whitefish and tossed 3 fantastic innings. He gave up 2 hits, walked 1 and struck out 4.

The offense would pour it on. The Dawgs, deemed the road team in this one, batted through the line-up twice in the 1st and scored 16 runs. Drew Queen, Will Sisson, Ashtyn Mintz, Carson Bramme, and Logan Stewart all collected RBI base knocks in the frame.

The Dawgs added another 9 runs in the second as every player for Whitefish, on the roster, would play in this game.

Whitefish collected 9 hits in this one as well and had 17 RBI's. They also walked 18 times.

Following Friday afternoon's action, the Dawgs are now 6-9 on the season, 4-3 in conference play.
