(Lebanon Twitte)-LEBANON - The Corvallis High baseball team defeated Lebanon 7-3 on Tuesday in a Mid-Willamette Conference game to help its playoff cause.
Garrett Miller led the way for Corvallis (13-7, 12-4) on the mound. He struck out 13 in a complete-game victory.
Kyle Weber had the Warriors most competitive match on April 25, losing 7-5 in a tight opening set before falling to West Albany’s Snowden Bristow 6-0 in the second.
Weber had another solid effort at Crescent Valley on April 27, but fell 6-2, 7-5 in the No. 3 singles match.
This week, CV plays Woodburn (0-15) and West plays South Albany (3-12) before the two leaders play each other next week in a potential three-game series for the championship.
Corvallis and Lebanon play this week with the loser almost certainly out of the running for a title.
West Albany would win tiebreakers with Corvallis and Lebanon having won two of three games from each of those teams this season.
April 25
West Albany 8, Lebanon 0
Tyler Day, West Albany d. Brad Weber, 6-0, 6-1
Anthony Van Eaton, West Albany d. Carter Shank, 6-0, 6-1
Snowden Bristow, West Albany d. Kyle Weber, 7-5, 6-0
Caleb Riley, West Albany d. Austin Kleint, 6-2, 6-0
CV coach Ryan Starwalt said Woodburn pitcher Joe Palafox kept the Raiders guessing.
"He was pitching a good game, throwing strikes and keeping us off-balance," Starwalt said.
Grant Mattes matched Palafox, finishing with 11 strikeouts and giving up two hits in six innings.
Jamie Alsip went 3 for 4 with a double, triple and four RBIs and Tanner Sanders went 3 for 5 with two doubles and three RBIs.
The Bulldogs have a good shot at the Mid-Willamette's second seed into the play-in games if they can sweep South Albany (1-13) this week and Crescent Valley (6-8) next week.
Lebanon (8-6) can move closer to claiming the fourth seed with at least two wins this week against Corvallis (5-10).
South looks to be locked into the seventh spot. The Rebels would have to win five of their last six against West and Woodburn (0-15) in addition to having Corvallis (5-10) get swept by Lebanon and Silverton in order to move up.
