The Tahoma Bears<\/a> are for real between the baseball lines, and the team proved it for the 12th time this season with a 11-4 win over Kentlake <\/a>Saturday on the Falcon’s field.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Despite the rain that has made playing baseball a lottery at best this season, the Bears have found a way to string together victories and are now leading the South Puget Sound League, 4A North with a 12-1 division record. Kentridge is next at 8-3.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Tahoma coach Russ Hayden said he thought at the beginning of the season he had a solid pitching staff, it was a matter of the team putting all the elements of the game together.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Tayler Saucedo was dominating Saturday on the hill picking up the win for the Bears.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

At the plate Reed Johnson went 2-1 with a home run and two RBIs. Brian Olson also hit one out going 3-2 with three RBIs.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Hayden said the Bears have had few chances to practice on the field because of the rain, but the team has still found the winning formula.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The Falcons hung in for seven innings. Kentlake is a young team and continued to play solid through the innings.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Brian Hartnett picked up the loss for Kentlake.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Ryan Archibald hit a double and drove in two RBIs.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Tahoma’s overall record is 14-1.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Kentlake is 7-6 in division play and 9-7 overall.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
