HARMONY SPORTS COMPLEX, VANCOUVER – In a hard-fought semi-final’s contest, the Lacamas Majors 10-11 All-Star baseball team defeated Evergreen, 9-8, and advance to the district championship game Tuesday night against Cascade.

At the bottom of five, the score was 5-5 and Jimmy Peebles delivered one into right field for a base hit and RBI, breaking the tie. Grant Heiser and Luke Brewer moved the score to 7-5.

Evergreen had their final say in the top of the sixth, and scored three runs with two outs on the board. The score was 8-7.

At the bottom of the sixth, Lacamas loaded the bases, and Grant Heiser’s walk off double brought in Camden Ford and Carson Williams, to win the game.

The final score was 9-8, Lacamas.

Tonight’s district championship game will be played at 6 pm at Harmony Sports Complex, aka Cascade Little League.

Editor’s note: For the record, Christian Geigenmiller is quickly recovering from his line drive hit to the head during Sunday’s game. He sat out Monday’s game, but plans to play in the championship game Tuesday.
