KEIZER – For the fourth time this season, the Everett AquaSox watched as a potential five-game winning streak was pulled from under them.

On Tuesday night, the AquaSox squandered a 1-0 lead in the ninth inning before losing 2-1 in 12 innings in a Northwest League West Division matchup.

Everett, which leads Vancouver by two games for first place in the West Division, fell to 33-25. The third-place Volcanoes pulled to within three games of Everett and improved to 30-28.

Salem-Keizer strung together two multiple-hit innings to defeat Everett.

In the ninth, and trailing 1-0, the Volcanoes rallied with two outs with back-to-back singles by Will Thompson and Charlie Babineaux.

Thompson hit a two-out single to right field and Babineaux followed with a single to left field, which scored Thompson from first base.

Everett’s Oswaldo Navarro hit a leadoff double in the 10th, but Salem-Keizer recorded three straight outs to escape the 11th.

In the 12th, Salem-Keizer’s Kyle Haines led off with a double. He reached third following a single by catcher Kyle Bone. Two batters later, Jeff Palumbo drove Haines home with the team’s third hit of the inning.

Palumbo finished 2-for-5 with an RBI and Babineaux had two hits for the Volcanoes, who outhit Everett 8-5.

Everett’s sole run came in the sixth inning thanks in part to two errors and a wild pitch.

Asdrubal Cabrera reached second base when his infield groundball ricocheted off the Salem-Keizer first baseman and rolled into right field.

Cabrera advanced to third on a wild pitch and then scored when Volcanoes catcher Nick Conte’s attempt to pick him off floated into right field.
