It was a gorgeous evening for Pony League baseball at the Salem Little League Complex, and Salem Bowl improved to 6-1 on the season with a 16-6 win over El Rancherito.

Salem Bowl jumped out to the lead in the very first inning.  After Tanner Purintun singled, scoring a run, an error scored another and then 3 runs would score on Kolten Calhoun’s double and they would take a 7-0 lead after the top of the inning.

They would add to that lead in the 2nd with 4 more runs.  Purintun grounded out, Kellen Nix, Cooper Burkett and Wyatt Eagan each walked scoring runs.

Salem Bowl would score 5 runs on no hits in the 3rd.

Owen Tennyson got the start allowing 3 hits and 2 runs .  Ely Purdy pitched for El Rancherito allowing 2 hits and 1 earned run.  Nix also pitched for Salem Bowl in relief.  Calhoun led the way with 3 RBI.

In the loss, Purdy, Vince Krajefska and Davion Garrison each had a hit with Purdy and Krajefska driving in 2 runs each.
