In a Timp Colt League thriller played at American Fork's Rotary Park May 14, the American Fork Pirates sank the American Fork Astros 10-6.
In the top of the first, Pirate pitcher B.G. Griffiths did not let a single Astro get on base. Meanwhile, Astro pitcher Grayson "Squirrel" Crawley didn't let the Pirates make any hits until the bottom of the fourth. Still, he gave up 10 walks during the course of the game. That was why the Pirates took a 5-0 lead in the first two innings.
In the bottom of the first, Pirates Jensen Whitaker and Jason Nelsen both came home on passed balls. The next inning, the Pirates picked up three runs on two walks and a steal.
During the top of the second, Astro Ethan Johnson rocketed a single into left, but he got injured during a fielder's choice play at second. He had to stay out for the rest of the game.
In the top of the third, a one-out single from Riley Phillips led to the Astros loading the bases. Carson "Nevada" Daniels smacked a two-run single that set off a six-run rally for the Pirates. During the rally, Brighton Gurney, a nephew of Awesome American Fork Caveman football legend Howie "Scooter Pie" Gurney, stole home. Crawley tripled in two runs, and he then stole home on two outs. After Dylan Beasley singled into left, teammate Bridger Brooksby struck out. Griffiths held the Astros scoreless for the rest of the game.
In the bottom of the fourth, Tanner Durfey doubled in Whitaker and Nelson to set off a four-run rally for the Pirates. That rally clutched the game for the Pirates.
