The Devils are now 2 - 0 in West Region play after a 6-5 win Sunday, April 2 over the Pierce Raiders.

The day did not start well for the devils who gave up 4 runs on 6 hits in the top of the 1st inning but sophomore pitcher Tyler Parsons came back with a vengeance allowing only 2 more hits and striking out 6 in 9 solid innings.  Lower Columbia put their first run on the board in the 4th with a Taylor Davis Sac Fly to Score Cameron Campbell. Devils added two more in the 5th with solid hitting from Trevor Huddleston, Ricky Muzzy, JT Strickler, and Campbell. Strickler and Campbell kept it going in the 7th with singles followed by a Jordan Barchus Sac FC to score Campbell and tie the game at 4 runs each. The scored stayed that way for 6 more innings.

Top of the 13th inning, the Raiders Tyson Cronin hits a double to score the go ahead run. But the Devils come out swinging, Huddleston singles, Muzzy sac bunts Huddleston to second, Strickler walks, a wild pitch moves Hudd to third and Muzzy to second. Then Campbell gets a hit fielded by the shortstop who makes a routine throw to the catcher but the Raiders catcher thinking it was a force never tagged Huddleston as he slid home. Score is now tied 5-5, Devils have runners on first and second. Davis gets on first off a Raiders error to load the bases for the Devils. Up steps Kyle Sandstrom who takes 4 balls in 5 pitches to walk scoring Strickler. Devils get the win!

Strickler went 4 for 5 on the day with a stolen base. Campbell was 3 for 7 with an RBI.
Tyler Parson threw a solid 9 inning with 8 hits, 4 runs, and 6 strike outs. The winning pitcher was Anthony Garcia who came in at the top of the 10th allowing only 1 hit and recording 2 strike outs. The losing pitcher was Mac McCarthy who threw 5 1/3 innings with 2 hits, 5 walks, and 2 Strike Outs.

The Devils head north to Auburn, WA for their next game vs the Green River Gators on April 5, 2017. First pitch is scheduled for 1:00 pm.
