FISHERTOWN — The Philipsburg-Osceola baseball team used a strong start by Archer Baughman and a balanced offensive attack to knock off host Chestnut Ridge, 10-1, Monday afternoon in Laurel Highlands Athletic Conference action.

Baughman tossed a complete game, allowing one run (unearned) on seven hits while striking out six and walking just one in what was a low-scoring contest most of the afternoon.

The Mounties opened things with a bang, as Parker Lamb belted a home run to right field to lead off the game. Philipsburg-Osceola took that 1-0 advantage into the fourth before adding on two more runs on a Connor Matier RBI single and Connor Guenot sac fly.

Chestnut Ridge finally got on the board with a run in the sixth to break up Baughman’s shutout bid, but the Mounties responded with a huge seven-run top of the seventh to break things wide open.

Mounties Nick DeSimone, Ryan Kolbe, Lamb and Zach Yoder all had RBI singles in the outburst, while Baughman helped his own cause with a two-run single.

Seven different players collected a hit in the win, with Lamb, Baughman and Yoder each having two, with Yoder ripping a double. Lamb, Baughman and Matier all had two RBIs.

The Mounties (3-1) are back in action Thursday against Altoona in the Altoona Curve Classic. First pitch is set for 12:30 p.m.
