CARNATION — Hitters on both sides took advantage of the short 267-foot porch in left field as Cedarcrest took the Cascade Conference game shortened by the 10-run rule. Nick Gagner smacked a three-run shot with two outs in the bottom of the fifth to end the game. Cedarcrest trailed 9-3 and 11-4 before exploding for a 10-run fourth inning. Paul Wilen and Christian MacMillan both went deep in the fourth for the Red Wolves. Tyler Reeves also homered for Cedarcrest in the first inning. Jeff Benson and Kyle Glover both smacked round trippers for the Tigers.
