What a day for Trevor Swartz. The Evergreen Baseball team’s No. 3 hitter went 3-for-4 with two extra-base hits, including a walk-off solo home run in the seventh to lift the Plainsmen to a 6-5 victory over Kelso in a battle of the 3A Greater St. Helens League’s lone undefeated teams. The Plainsmen now sit alone atop the 3A GSHL at 4-0 and 5-2 overall. Kelso falls to 3-1 in league. Swartz also picked up the victory in relief, tossing 11/3 innings, and also scored a pair of runs. Kelso tied it up 5-5 with a three-run sixth, in part because of two outfield errors by Evergreen. But the play of the game, Plainsmen coach Chad Burchett said, happened in the top of the seventh when Evergreen right fielder Luke Allen robbed Kelso’s Cheyton Whitright of a would-be go-ahead home run to lead off the half-inning. “He was well above the fence,” Burchett said of Allen’s grab. The catch kept the game tied. In the next half inning, Swartz’s one-out walk-off homer extended Evergreen’s inning streak to four games. Josh Hibbard went 2-for-3 with two runs scored and Ryan Logan was 1-for-3 with three RBI for Evergreen.
