Faribault s Nate Rost cracked a two run home run and was very efficient on the mound in the Lakers 6-0 win tonight over the Webster Sox at Bell Field in Faribault.
Rost threw just 68 pitches in 6 innings with 5 strikeouts, 1 walk, 4 hits allowed. 47 of the 68 pitches were strikes and he 15 first pitch strikes of 22 batters faced.
Joey Grote finished the final three innings not allowing a hit with 6 strikeouts, 1 walk. He threw 53 pitches, 34 strikes with 7 of 11 first pitch strikes.
One of the highlights of the game was seeing the return of Shane Gunderson playing on the diamond. Without a doubt one of the best athletes ever to play at Faribault High School. His senior season he led the Big Nine Conference in rushing in football, scoring in basketball and hitting in baseball.
