CPHS Baseball: Sandites thump Tahlequah 10-2 at Pryor Tournament

The Charles Page High School varsity baseball team improved to a 10-2 record with a 10-2 victory over Tahlequah (3-8) in the first round of the Tiger/Zebra Classic at Pryor High School Thursday afternoon. Hayden Blair secured the walk-off run-rule victory with an RBI single on his first at-bat of the season in the bottom of the fifth inning.

Ben Banker (4-0) got the start and the win on the mound, throwing four strikeouts, no walks, and only one hit in three innings. John Miller (1-0) and Cal Watkins pitched an inning apiece. Miller gave up two hits and one walk with one strikeout. Watkins threw one walk and one strikeout with no hits.

Sand Springs was dominant in all aspects of the game, outhitting the Tigers 12 to 3. They committed only one error to Tahlequah’s three, stole nine bases, and only stranded three runners.

Kaegan Murray hit a leadoff double for the Sandites and came in soon after on a single from Watkins. Watkins scored on a passed ball for a 2-0 lead in the first inning.

The Sandites did most of their damage in the third with seven hits for seven runs. Watkins, Kyler Copeland, and Murray all hit RBI singles, and Malachi Burks hit a 2RBI double. Burks, Watkins, Cale Savage, Jacob Snodgrass, Ethan Sartin, Keaton Campbell, and Murray all scored runs.

Cole Goodnight scored in the top of the fourth to avert the shutout. Seth Stacey drove in the first run and Tate Christian scored on an error. Blair scored Campbell for the Sandites’ fourth-straight win.

Sand Springs will play Coweta (8-3) Friday at 3:00 p.m.
