Baseball:

Tuesday was KingCo opening day for baseball and it was a tight game for all 10 teams playing with the majority of the teams holding their opponents at five runs or less.

The Beavers faced the Garfield Bulldogs and earned their first victory.

The Beavers started strong, scoring twice in the first inning thanks to a Bulldog error and an RBI double by Nelson Cooper.

Rory Graf-Brennen’s double brought home two more runs in the second inning to give Ballard a 4 to 0 lead. Garfield scored twice in the fifth inning, cutting the gap in half.

But the Beavers finished strong with 4 to 2 win.

Ballard pitcher Caleb Jaeger struck out eight, and gave away four hits, and one walk.
