March 31, 2007 Lacey, WA – Saint Martin’s baseball picked up two wins Saturday, defeating Central Washington University 5-3 in game one and then 4-0 in game two behind the solid pitching of Tip Wonhoff. Wonhoff was consistent from start to finish throwing all seven innings for the Saints. He scattered six hits and didn’t walk a batter. Wonhoff has walked just one batter in 47 innings this year. The Saints’ offense did their part posting crooked numbers in the second and fourth innings. Curtis Thibault and Tanner Gronowski each picked up an RBI. Thibault was 2-3 in the game with two runs scored. The Saints rallied for the win in game one. After Central took the early 2-0 lead through two the Saints added two of their own in the fifth. Central regained the lead with one more in the top of the sixth on an RBI single by Justin Marshall but SMU answered back in the bottom of the inning. With one on and two out Vince Maughan singled through the left side to score Andy Cole and tie the game 3-3. Adam Siler led off the seventh with a hit, pinch hitter Craig Yuhas singled and Richard O’Neill walked. With the bases loaded and no outs Thibault singled to right side to bring in Siler and Yuhas, putting the Saints back on top. The Wildcats couldn’t put anything together in the final two innings giving the Saints the win. Pat Capone started for the Saints going sixth and one third innings giving up three runs. Andrew Neisinger came in to close out the game for the Saints not allowing a hit, striking out four and picking up the win. Tyler Levin took the loss for the Wildcats. The Saints have two more games against Central this weekend with a doubleheader tomorrow in Ellensburg.
