OSTRANDER HITS FOR THE CYCLE IN CHUKS BIG WIN
UTL Garret Ostrander hit the first Chukar cycle since Trevor Rogers did so on August 3rd of last season.
The Chukars would storm their way to their third win of the week, with a 23-12 win over the RedPocket Mobiles.
In the first inning, he had the Chukars first hit of the day with a single. He would later score on OF Sam Canton’s team-leading 11th home run of the season. The very next inning, he doubled home a pair.
In his next at-bat in the fourth inning, he tripled to center field and would later come around to score on another OF Sam Canton RBI. In the fifth inning, he walked and scored and in the sixth inning he advanced on an error and crossed the plate again.
In the seventh inning, with runners on first and second, Ostrander blasted his first home run of the season after hitting the top of the wall numerous times over the last two weeks, to complete the cycle.
He would finish the day with four hits, five runs, five RBI, a walk and his team leading sixth stolen base for good measure.
SS Ty Dooley had a multi-home run day with a three-run shot in the fourth to give the Chukars a two-run lead in the fourth inning. Two batters later, INF Justin Trimble hit his 10th home run of the year, again, to the opposite field.
Dooley would homer again in the eighth inning with a solo trip. He finished the day with four runs driven in.
On his 23rd birthday, INF Justin Trimble had three doubles, a home run and a single with four driven in, a triple-shy of the cycle.
Each Chukar recorded a hit as the 1-5 spots in the order drove in 20 of the 23 runs scored.
The 23 runs on 22 hits and six home runs were each game high’s for IF. In the three-game series, the Mobiles and Chukars combined for 22 home runs, with RedPocket blasting 16, and eight alone on Saturday night.
The Chuks finished the first half of their 12-game home stand going 3-3 and will host the Great Falls Voyagers for a three-game mid-week series before Boise returns to Melaleuca Field for a three-game weekend set.
