CARROLL ? Kuemper Catholic moved within a half game of fifth-place Creston in the Hawkeye 10 baseball standings Wednesday with a 7-2 victory over the Panthers.
Creston traveled to Carroll to finish the second half of a doubleheader from June 14, when the Panthers won the opener 7-5 before the nightcap was postponed by rain.
But Creston fell short of the sweep by providing the Knights four unearned runs on three errors, despite outhitting the hosts 8-6.
?Too many unearned runs ... sloppy play,? Creston coach Steve Birchard said. ?It was an accumulation of a lot of little things that made it look sort of ugly. We led off the game with an error. Ben (Landers) didn?t really have his usual control, and he got tired.?
Landers allowed only three earned runs in taking the loss. In 3 2/3 innings he gave up five hits with one walk and one strikeout. Nate Haley finished with 2 1/3 shutout innings.
Freshman Adam Schleisman pitched a complete game for the Knights, allowing eight hits with three walks and one strikeout.
Kuemper improved to 7-7 in the conference and 17-11 overall. Creston stays in fifth place at 8-7, and 12-10 overall.
Creston?s only scoring occurred in the sixth inning. After a Kuemper error, Creston put together a rally with two outs on fielder?s choices. Briar Evans? double put runners on second and third, setting up RBI singles by Cole Crawford and Trevor Luther. Crawford was thrown out trying to advance to third, ending the inning.
Bryce Wessels hit a two-run homer in Kuemper?s three-run third inning to make it 4-0. The Knights added three more runs in the fourth. Logan Nolting had a triple and three RBI.
The long week of conference play continues today for the Panthers in a varsity doubleheader at Atlantic (third in H-10 at 9-4, 14-7 overall.)
?We will have to play hard,? Birchard said. ?They are one of the teams that will be near the top at the end.?
