In the bottom of the sixth they strung together three hits, ruining a bid for a no-hitter by Pender's Jeff Padgett, and went on to capture a 4-1 Three Rivers 3-A Conference baseball vic tory. Padgett, a-left hander, had given up only four walks in the first five innings, but three of those came in suc cession and with two down in the second to load the bases. The Patriots' southpaw got out of that jam by sitting the next batter down on strikes, one of 10 strikeouts he recorded on that day. Anthony Locklear, whose throwing error had helped Pender score its only run in the first inning, redeemed himself by getting Pem broke's first hit, a slashing single to left field to open the home half of the sixth. Devy Bell followed with a liner that richoted off Padgett's legs and rolled toward the Patriot dugout. A sacrifice bunt advanced the runners to second and third and Locfclear beat a bud throw to the plate on Eric G. LocMear's high bounder to third. By the time the Pender catcher had retrievodthe bull. Pembroke hud runners in scoring position. A strikeout victim his first two times up. Randy Jacobs broke out of his slump in a big way by driving a single in the hole. Pender short stop Bryan Wells managed to get a glove on Jacobs' shot, but not stop it. and thd ball rolled off to the third base side of the field. Bell and pinch runner Benny Demery scored and when the throw to second base to gut Jacobs sailed into center field, he was waved on around by coach Ronnie Chavis. Pembroke pitcher Eric Lock (ear who had scattered four hits in the previous six frames, made quick work of the Pender County seventh inning. The win, Pembroke's third in a row, ups Lock!ear's personal record to 3-1, while the Warriors improve to 10-8, 4-1. Warriors Lose to West Columbus I by David Malcolm Ceiro Gordo- West Columbus got only two hits in the bottom of the second inning, but the Vikings were aided by a big infield error and went on to score three runs en route to a 6-1 win over Pembroke in Three Rivers 3-A baseball action Tuesday night. With one on and one out. West Columbus' Keith Ran som hit a tailor-made double play gounder to Anthony Locklear at third bhad;?W-1 Locklear couldn't get the handle on the ball and a run scored. Pembroke probably would have gotten out of the inning unhurt if Locklear could have come up with die ball as the next man flied to right field. As it was, Chris Nance doubled and winning pitcher Grant Johnson (1-1) drew a walk to load the bases. Two more runs came in when Pat Sellars drove a double in the gap in left field. The Vikings picked up their fourth run in the home half of the third when Chris Wright lashed a ball high in the strike iMBBBBaaaaaaMaa zone well'over the left field fence. Pembroke scored its only run of the game after Coach Ronnie Chavis was ejected for arguing the call made on a disputed play at second base in the top of the fourth with two out and a runner on first, Steve Cummings lined a single to left field, bringing home pinch runner Benny Demery. West Columbus added insurance runs in the bottom of the inning and again in the fifth to put th?< game out of reach. The loss was a costly one for Pembroke, currently in volved in a hot race for the TRC lead and the right to represent the conference in the state playoffs. Now 4-2 in league play, the Warriors play host to conference leader East Bladen this Friday night. The Cougars handed Pembroke its other conference setback on April 21 in a game played in Elizabethtown, and the War riors will be looking for revenge in the 7:30 contest which will take place at Pembroke State University. 1 Ll.G?v?fMr Jlaajf Ot?m NMkN ? pUqM * ^pHCk tfaa bwi NMh WMtb, wfe r *' ?' ?
