MONTICELLOÂ â Twin Lakes opened up the 2021 baseball season Friday with an 11-1 victory over visiting South Newton.
Rebel Kellen Krug opened the scoring by driving in Korbin Cruz in the gameâs first inning off Twin Lakes starter Dailan Reece.
After that run, Reece settled down to hold South Newton hitless the final five innings. He struck out 12, walked five and hit three South Newton hitters.
âHe had some control problems when he hits three guys and walked five more, but for him to overcome that and make South Newton put the ball in play, which they struggled to do, was important,â Twin Lakes head coach Jake Burton said. âHe is going to have to throw more strikes against better teams because better teams will make you pay when you give them free bases.â
