Tigers hold off Stillwater, 5-2
By: Doug Quinn
03/27/2007
Nothing came easy for Broken Arrow High School
baseball Tuesday.
Though the Tigers beat Stillwater, 5-2, in a Frontier
Valley Conference game, coach Shannon Dobson
wasn't happy.
He didn't mince his words after BAHS improved to 11-3.
"We just went through the motions," Dobson said.
"We didn't come ready to play.
"We figured all we had to do was show up and we'd win."
The Tigers managed eight hits off Pioneer sophomore
Korbin Kenmore and four of those produced runs.
Yet, BAHS, which has won seven of its last eight, didn't muster much else, stranding five
base runners.
Tiger starter Lance Rymel (4-0) pitched the first six innings and worked around three hit
batsmen, two walks and a wild pitch.
Stillwater's two runs came in the sixth and the Pioneers had the bases loaded when Rymel
escaped further damage.
"Lance didn't have his best stuff," Dobson said. "He started going to an off-speed pitch too
much and not relying on his fastball."
Left-hander Brett Ziegler pitched the seventh wasn't immune.
A two-out error kept the Pioneer hopes alive before Ziegler got a comebacker to the mound
to end the game.
"Right there," Dobson said, "all we needed was a simple catch and throw and the game was
over."
The Tigers single runs in the first three innings against Kenmore but didn't have a knockout
punch.
Andy Wilkins' fourth homer of the season gave BAHS a 1-0 lead in the first and Ky Burgess
singled home courtesy runner Derek Williams in the second.
A Stillwater error in the third allowed John Swyden, who had singled, to score for a three-run
cushion.
Swyden had an RBI double and Nathan Pettus a run-scoring single in the fifth to stake
Rymel to a 5-0 lead.
Game Notes
* BAHS starter Lance Rymel had six strikeouts and reliever Brett Ziegler one.
* Rymel retired the Pioneers in order in the first, third and fourth innings.
* Stillwater starter Korbin Kenmore was charged with four earned runs with five strikeouts,
two walks and two wild pitches.
* One of the walks to Kenmore was an intentional pass to Andy Wilkins in the fifth.
* Derek Williams, Ky Burgess and Wilkins had stolen bases for BAHS.
* John Swyden and Ky Burgess had two hits each for BAHS.
* The four Stillwater hits came from the bottom five in the batting order.
* BAHS hosts Edmond Santa Fe Thursday at 7:30 p.m. in the first day of the Tiger-Trojan
Classic.
