PEMBERVILLE, Ohio — Logan Stein (Tinora) pitched six shutout innings, as Napoleon American Legion Post #300 blanked Ottawa Post #63 6-0 in the District 1 Tournament Tuesday night.

Stein picked up the win, allowing one hit, while walking two and striking out six. Cory Herman (Edgerton) pitched a scoreless seventh inning, allowing a hit and a walk.

Ottawa’s first scoring chance came in the second inning when the Fighting Sixty-Thirds led off with a double. Stein struck out the next two batters and ended the inning with a pop up to right field.

The River Bandits, who stranded a pair of runners in the first inning, broke a scoreless tie with four runs in the bottom of the third inning.

Camden Bukwoski (Bryan) was hit by a pitch to lead off the inning and Elijah Arend followed with a single to put runners on first a second. Bukwoski was tagged out at third on a bunt attempt, but Kenneth Smeltzer (Montpelier) walked to load the bases.

After a walk to Cade Carlin (Bryan) brought in the first run, Kaden Kreinbrink (Liberty Center) singled to score two runs. Carlin, however, was thrown out at third base for the second out of the inning.

After an error put runners on the corners, a passed ball scored Kreinbrink from third for a 4-0 lead.

Napoleon tacked on a pair of runs in the fifth.

Smeltzer and Carlin walked to lead off the frame, but were followed by a pair of fly balls. Owen Reynolds (Tinora) smacked a two-out, two-run single for a 6-0 lead.
