Lisbon 4, Wellsville 3

LISBON — Junior Brady Carpenter had a school-record 19 strikeouts and Mason Jones’ go-ahead RBI single with two outs in the fifth was the difference as Lisbon’s baseball team came back to beat Wellsville, 4-3, Wednesday.

Wellsville’s first 12 outs came by way of strikeouts by Carpenter, who gave up five hits and two walks over seven innings.

The Devils went down 3-2 in the top of the third only to come back to tie as Carpenter scored on a fielder’s choice by Aiden Myers with the bases loaded in the bottom of the third inning. The Tigers threw out a runner at the plate for a double play and then Myers was caught stealing to end the inning.

Ashton Hinchliffe had two hits and an RBI for the Devils.

Tyler Landess had a double, two singles and two RBIs for the Tigers. Landon Ramsey had a triple and an RBI.

Both teams scored twice in the first inning. Ethan Morris led off the game with a walk for Wellsville. He scored on a Landon Ramsey triple to deep right field and then Ramsey scored on a long single by Tyler Landess. Carpenter then had seven consecutive strikeouts.

Bryce Esary was hit by a pitch and Carpenter walked to put two Blue Devils in position. Hinchliffe’s single brought both of them home to tie the game at 2-2. A nice stretch by Wellsville first baseman Austin Watkins got the Tigers out of the inning, stranding Hinchliffe at third.

Wellsville went up 3-2 in the third inning as Ramsey walked and scored on Landess’ double to deep left field.

Ramsey was also the losing pitcher with eight strikeouts and five walks in six innings.
