Alvinston,
ON – The Alvinston Indians returned home Thursday
night for a double header against the Glanworth
Gators.
In game #1, the Indians ended the game in five
innings, as a series of errors helped the Indians to
a 7-0 shutout win. Scoring for the Indians were
Chris Sheppard (2), Ryan Chapman, Eric Hyatt, Jeff
Lyons, Joe Triest, and Jamie Shields. Driving in the

shutout win for the Indians, scattering four hits
over 5 innings of work, while striking out 6.
In game #2, the Glanworth Gators struck first,
taking a 1-0 lead, when Indians stater Kyle Crawford
struggled out of the games. But Crawford settled
down, and was top notch for the remainder of the
game, and the Indians fought back to support their
young arm. Andy Triest walked to lead off the third,
and scored on an RBI double by Brad Young into the
gap. Then Jamie Shields scored the go ahead run in
the third inning, when he scored on an RBI single by
Chris Sheppard. Alvinston then added one more run in
the sixth, when Indians first baseman Jeff Ingram
was hit by a pitch, advanced to third on a Tom
Jobson single, and then pinch runner Pat Sanders
scored the third run for Alvinston, on a Joe Triest
RBI single. The final score was 3-1 for Alvinston,
as they earned both wins in the double header.
Crawford was dominant in the win for Alvinston,
allowing one earned run in seven innings, and only
two hits, while walking two, and fanning 13
Glanworth swingers.
The Indians are now 13-3 on the season in league
play, and are at home on Sunday afternoon versus
Springfield, for a 2pm start.
