Jackson beats Cascade 13-5 in baseball

MILL CREEK — Jackson coach Kirk Nicholson had a few problems with his baseball team’s performance in Monday night’s makeup game against Casade.

“We committed eight errors,” Nicholson said. “We’ve got some things to work on.”

One thing Nicholson wouldn’t like to re-do is the outcome. Jackson used a seven-run explosion in the third inning to take control of the game, eventually taking a 13-5 non-conference victory at home.

Jackson’s Greg Cranson was 3-for-4 with a home run, a double and five RBI. Danny Oh and Brandon Wang each were 3-for-4 as well.

With the bases loaded in the third inning, Cranson hit a ball off the right field wall to clear the bases, allowing Jackson to cut the Bruins’ lead to 4-3. The Timberwolves tacked on four more runs to take a 7-4 lead and never trailed again.

Nick Kiel relieved in the third to pick up the win for Jackson, which improved to 2-0 overall. Cascade fell to 0-2 overall.
