f- i i 1 1 i'J 4 5 i i t( Pag Ravalli DapuMIt, Hamilton, Jona 13, IMS Outdoors Bucs trample Lewistown, previous state champions S1 wf lv i 1 tj fm 1 iM m3a 'l 1M- and then advanced to third after Dembisky singled to center field. Dembisky then stole into second, but on the throw from the Lewistown catcher to the second baseman the ball flew loose allowing Lilyquist to charge home for the tying run and putting Dembisky at third on the overthrow. Flustered from the error, Lewistowns pitcher overthrew his third baseman as Dembisky led off. Dembisky came home to put the Bucs on top by one run, 5-4. Although the Bucs got three more men on base, they were unable to bring them in to chalk up runs.

So atthebottom of the seventh inning Lewistown needed two runs to win, one to tie. The Bucs touted defense was called upon to hold the line. They did, allowing three up and taking all three out. Theres two parts to the game, explained Townsend following the game, youve got to be able to throw the ball and catch it. We do both." At Dillon the Bucs also hit, beating the Cubs 15-7 and 16-5.

The Bucs next game is Wednesday, June 15, against Whitehall in Hamilton at 1 p.m. Bodies hurtled across the playing field as the Bitterroot Bucs defense held the Lewistown Redbirds scoreless in the bottom of the seventh inning to scrape a 5-4 win by last years state champions Sunday at the Hamilton Athletic Field. Right now were the team to beat at state, said Bucs coach Larry Townsend, a toothpick clenched tightly between his smiling teeth. The Bucs hold a 15-0 record fcdlowing back to back wins over Lewistown on Sunday and Dillon on Saturday. In Western A league play the Bucs are 4-0.

The Bucs eased to a 10-4 victory in the first game against Lewistown Sunday. Obviously, Chad (Dem-bisky) is a good pitcher, said Lewistown coach Jim Wier of his teams loss to the Bucs thrower. Weve been on the road three days too, so we were a little flat the first game. We worked hard the second game. But the Bucs worked harder.

Down 4-3 at the bottom of the sixth inning 16-year-old Bucs third baseman Mike Goicoechea made a diving catch on a low line drive to nab the first but of the inning. That stunning play set the tone for the rest of the inning as the Bucs ousted the next two batters with their defensive play to hold the Redbirds scoreless. With the Bucs at bat Brian Lilyquist stepped to the plate and hit a single. From first he stole second base DEFENSE Bitterroot Bucs pitcher Bubba Townsend, above, turns to throw out a Lewistown runner to first base. In another inning, Lewistowns first baseman fumbles the throw, costing him an out.

Defense, and the lack of it by Lewistown, was the key to the Bucs wins Sunday at the Hamilton Athletic Field. West, Whitcraft to compete in China ter, and one leg in the 1600 meter relay.
