Windham- Windham Jr. Legion hosted Lewiston for a double header that was rescheduled from last weekend.

In game one, Lewiston prevailed 5-3 over Windham. Devin Lailer went six innings and gave up the winning runs in the sixth inning, the last he pitched. Windham’s Micah Sawyer blasted a solo home run in the fifth inning to help the Windham squad and also scored in the seventh, but his efforts were to no avail as Lewiston’s pitching kept the Windham batters guessing.

After a hot dog lunch put on by the Windham team parents, both teams took the field again. Fans and players alike enjoyed the summer conditions that the day brought.

Windham struck in the first inning when Dylan Taylor scampered across the plate to put Windham up. Lewiston answered in the third inning with two runs. Kyle Williams answered those runs with a home run shot of his own over the left field fence to tie the game in the bottom of the third. The game remained tied for 9 more innings. With Lewiston runners on second and third, Windham pitcher Kyle Williams threw a wild pitch giving Lewiston the lead. Windham’s bats were making contact in the bottom of the 13th, but the Lewiston defense fielded everything cleanly to end the game.
