Game Recap - Rosetown A's Prove to be Too Much for the Bandits

The River Bandits (0-3 conf, 0-5 overall) took on the highly touted and talented Rosetown A's Saturday afternoon in their second game of the Ken Staples tournament. Newly acquired Adam Lewis was the starting pitcher for the Bandits and after the first two innings, he really settled into a groove. Lewis gave up five runs in the first two innings, but set the A's down effectively for the rest of the game only letting up one more run in the last five innings.

The starting pitcher for the A's pitched a stellar five innings, keeping the Bandits hitters off-balance and for the most part, off the bases. He was lifted in the sixth inning and the Bandits were able to get a few hits off the A's relief pitcher but unfortunately were not able to capitalize, leaving a few men on base in the sixth and the seventh. "This was easily the best team that we have played all year, and I thought we stuck with them very well, Lewis had a great game," said coach Scott Lindholm.

The Bandits will play their third game of the Ken Staples tournament, Sunday 6/3 at 11:00 am. Trevor Todd will be taking the mound for the Bandits.
