The Carbon High School baseball team lost both games of Tuesday’s doubleheader against the Falcons of Canyon View High School, losing 4-3 in the first game and 14-4 in the second game.
The Dinos and Falcons remained scoreless through the first four innings of play in Tuesday’s first game. Canyon View took the first lead, scoring two runs in the top of the fifth inning. Carbon got one back in the bottom of the inning, on an RBI single by sophomore Ty Anderson, scoring senior Wyatt Wilson who had reached on a double.
The Dinos tied the game at two runs on an RBI single by senior Chase Morgan, scoring junior Cody Lowe, who had reached on a walk. Carbon then took a 3-2 lead on a pinch-hit RBI double by junior Jadon Robertson.
Unfortunately for the Dinos, the Falcons rallied in the top of the seventh inning, scoring two runs to take the 4-3 lead. Carbon went down in order in the bottom of the inning and Canyon View won the game.
Junior Zac Bradley started the game on the mound for the Dinos, tossing 5.2 innings. He allowed two earned runs and struck out four while walking two. Junior Jaxon Leonard finished out the sixth inning for the Dinos and earned one out in the seventh inning, allowing two earned runs, striking out one and walking one. Morgan earned the last two outs of the game on the mound for the Dinos.
The second game of the day for the Dinos also resulted in a tough loss, with Carbon never overcoming the five runs Canyon View scored in the first two innings.
The Falcons scored three runs in the first inning, but the Dinos got two back right away, with Lowe hitting an RBI double and senior Jayden Flemett hitting an RBI single.
Canyon View scored two runs in the second inning, but the Dinos brought the score within one run in the fourth inning with two runs of their own. Senior Kameron Gunter hit a two-RBI single to score Flemett and Morgan, who had both reached on singles.
In the final three innings of the game, the Falcons continued to tack on runs, with two in the fifth, two in the sixth, and a final five in the seventh. Carbon could not capitalize on bases loaded in the final inning of the game, and took the 14-4 loss.
The Dinos fall to 11-9 overall and 7-4 in Region 12 play. Carbon will travel to Canyon View on Friday for the final game of the series.
