That's 15 In A Row For Feather River

SUSANVILLE--Visiting Feather River scored a season-high 20 runs in the first game and tallied double digits again in the nightcap for a doubleheader sweep over host Lassen College.

The Golden Eagles rang up 20-8 and 11-4 victories to sweep the series over the Cougars. It was the 14th and 15th straight wins for the Dirty Birds, who are now 19-6 on the season and 11-0 in the Golden Valley Conference.

FRC has now scored at least 10 runs or better in seven straight games. 

In the first game, the Golden Eagles put up crooked numbers in five of the nine innings--including six in the second. They would continue the onslaught with three runs in the fourth, seventh and ninth, and they also had four plate crossings in the fifth. 

They would bash out 16 hits, with five players having multiple base knock games--Walker DesRosier (4-4), Jackson Phillips (2-4), Jake Dahl (2-4), Josh Davies (2-4) and Jackson Hertel (2-4). DesRosier would drive in three and Dahl had four RBI.

The second game had a different beginning but the same ultimate outcome. Feather River trailed 4-0 through five innings, and they didn't get on the scoreboard until they scored one run in the sixth.

But they busted out with six runs in the seventh and added three more in the ninth to pull away. They would lash 15 hits, three each by Kory Chu and Luke Henderson while DesRosier and Nick Anderson had two each. Henderson had four RBI with a pair of doubles and Anderson had three RBI. 

Carl Colavecchio pitched the final 3.1 scoreless innings to earn the win. He allowed just one hit, walked one and struck out three. 

The Golden Eagles will try and keep it going at home next weekend, hosting Shasta on Friday in a 2 pm single game and on Saturday in a doubleheader that starts at noon.
