CHILLICOTHE - A mixed bag of results led to a summer baseball season ending Wednesday evening.

After beating Hillsboro Post 129 early in the day to advance in the 2016 Region V American Legion Tournament at VA Memorial Stadium, Chillicothe Post 757 fell 17-7 to Waverly Post 142 in the nightcap, effectively ending their 2016 campaign.

"This week is always a grind," Chillicothe Post 757 coach Tom Barr said. "Win, lose or draw, you have to tip your cap to both Jacob Chester and JD Blevins. Both of those guys manned up for us and threw well on short rest. They're both competitors. That's the kind of mentality they have."

As Barr eluded to, Chester carried the Colts (15-21) to a victory against Hillsboro earlier in the day. In a 4-3 win, Chester was handed a no-decision but threw 8 1/3 innings before getting the hook. His final line included 104 pitches, seven hits allowed, a single earned run and three strikeouts.

"We probably could have done a better job as a coaching staff of moving some guys around a little more but at this point in the season, you've got to go with who you think your best is and Jacob was that," Barr said.

With the game scoreless, 757 took a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the fourth inning as Trenton Harris scored on an RBI triple off the bat of Blevins. Hillsboro answered in the fifth on an RBI groundout to make it 1-1.

In the bottom half of the inning, the Colts retook the lead thanks to RBI doubles from Anthony Sipple and Zack Stapleton. That 3-1 edge lasted until the top of the seventh when 129 cut the deficit to 3-2 on an RBI single. Hillsboro forced a 3-3 stalemate in the ninth before 757 came up with some late inning heroics.

Brian Smith drew a walk and immediately stole second base to put himself in scoring position. Stapleton laid down a bunt to move Smith to third and with Eli Kunkel standing at the plate, Smith scored on a passed ball to hand the Colts a 4-3 walk-off win.

"I thought our guys came out and fought hard to get that first win today," Barr said. "That's not an easy thing to do after playing in 90-degree heat most of the week. When (Smith) got to third, we knew we had a pretty good shot."

Blevins was credited with the win after pitching 2/3 of an inning of relief. The southpaw then started the next contest, nearly three hours later, and gave up just three earned runs to Waverly in five innings of work.

The Shockers (16-13) fell to Circleville Post 134 to begin the day by a 14-4 final. They were then pitted against 757 in the losers' bracket championship.

With Waverly leading 4-3 heading into the fifth inning, 757 strung together four runs on three hits, three walks and a passed ball to seize a 7-4 advantage. 142 answered with three runs in the sixth to force a 7-7 tie. The Shockers pounded out 10 runs in the next two innings to win by the run-rule.

"We did what we had to do to get to the championship," Waverly coach Johnathan Teeters said. "Give our team credit for bouncing back after that first game and coming out ready to play. We really started to hit the ball. Hopefully, that will carry over until tomorrow. Our guys will be ready to go."

On the day, Waverly's Logan Shoupe was 4-for-7 with an RBI and five runs scored. Jared Alley followed by finishing 3-for-7 with a double, four runs and a pair of RBIs. Logan Kottenbrook was also productive with a 3-for-8 day including two runs, two doubles and an RBI.

For 757, Sipple led the offense by going 5-for-8 with three RBIs, two doubles and two runs. Hayden Henness helped out by finishing 3-for-7 with an RBI and a run as Stapleton was 2-for-7 with an RBI, a double and a run.

As the Colts look towards 2017, Waverly will meet with Circleville 134 in the Region V district championship at 4 p.m. Thursday, back at VA Memorial Stadium.

"The guys who are wanting to come back are going to have to tryout just like everyone else," Barr said. "We're going to take the guys who are willing to come in and do what they need to do, what we expect them to do. We have guys in our program who donate hundreds of hours and they deserve the best product we can put on the field. That's the goal."

CHILLICOTHE - As Chillicothe Post 757 lived to fight another day, barely, the team's hometown counterpart, Post 62, saw its season end with two losses Monday at VA Memorial Stadium in the American Legion Region V Tournament.

The Colts fell to Circleville Post 134 by a 13-3 final before edging by Portsmouth Post 23 in the nightcap, 10-9. The Riverbats fell 4-3 to Waverly Post 142 and saw their season come to a halt at the hands of Hillsboro Post 129, 12-4.

As far as Post 62's story goes, the team had a perfect chance to steal a win in its first contest.

The Riverbats (12-12) entered the top of the ninth inning facing a 4-2 deficit. But after scoring a run to cut Post 142's lead to 4-3, runners stood on second and third with two outs. That's when Waverly's pitching staff came up with the biggest whiff of the day to seal the envelope.

Post 142's Alex Powell picked up the win, throwing 8 1/3 innings. Powell allowed three runs on seven hits and struck out seven. The Riverbats' Jeremy Brooks took the loss in six innings of work. The southpaw surrendered three runs on eight hits and struck out four.

As Waverly advanced to Wednesday's action, Post 62 was forced to face Hillsboro 129 in the losers' bracket at noon.

The Riverbats gave up three runs in the first, one in the fourth, three in the fifth and one in the sixth to fall behind, 8-0.

Hillsboro then tacked on four more in the seventh to go ahead 12-0 before Post 62 finally graced the scoreboard. After cutting the deficit to 12-3, the Riverbats scored a run in the ninth to produce the final tally.

Jeff Webb took the loss, throwing five innings and allowing seven runs on eight hits.

Overall on the day, Russell Throckmorton led the Riverbats' offense, going 4-for-7 with two RBIs and two runs. Tanner Doles followed by finishing 3-for-7 with two runs. Owen Diehl also contributed, going 2-for-7 with a run and tossing three innings of scoreless relief.

The Colts (14-20) then met up with Circleville 134 and promptly fell by a 13-3 final as the Panthers scored three in the first, four in the fourth, one each in the fifth and sixth and four more in the eighth.

Post 757's JD Blevins took the loss on the hill, throwing four innings, allowing seven runs — four earned — and striking out six.

Dropping into the losers' bracket, Post 757 then met up with Portsmouth 23, which produced the best game of the entire day.

With Tommy Preston on the hill, Post 757 took a commanding 8-1 lead heading into the sixth inning. But the wheels seemed to fall off the wagon at that point.

Portsmouth scored five sixth-inning runs on three hits — two triples — two walks and a fielding error to climb back into things. With their lead cut to 8-6, the Colts then surrendered another run in the seventh to see their edge dwindle to 8-7.

In the bottom half of the seventh, Corey Righman scored to give Post 757 a 9-7 advantage. But in the top of the ninth, Post 23 plated two runs to force the first tie since the beginning of the game. After Jacob Chester came on in relief to get the Colts out of trouble, JD Blevins drew a walk before moving to second on a passed ball. That's when Anthony Sipple singled into right-center field to give the Colts a 10-9 victory.

"Anthony came up clutch for us," Post 757 coach Tom Barr said. "We've been here pretty much all day, and Anthony caught most of the first game before coming back and finishing behind the plate for us in the second contest. He struggled today more than he had been, but he came through when it mattered."

Chester picked up the win as he recorded just a single out, while Preston was given a no-decision after going 5 2/3, allowing five runs — one earned — on five hits and striking out four.

Overall on the day at the plate, Cody Hendershot led the Colts by going 4-for-7 with a double, three RBIs and two runs scored. Eli Kunkel was 3-for-6 with two RBIs and two runs, while Zack Stapleton finished 3-for-7 with two runs and an RBI.

The Colts will get back at it  at noon Wednesday against Hillsboro 129, which they beat 12-1 Sunday morning. If they win, they will face the winner of Waverly 142 and Circleville 134 in the losers' bracket finals.

"It's a totally new situation than Sunday," Barr said. "It all comes down to pitching at this point. I know Hillsboro's deep when it comes to that area. We're going to have to have some guys step up for us, and I know they will."

CHILLICOTHE - Both Chillicothe Post 757's Jacob Chester and Chillicothe Post 62's Tanner Popp dealt gems Sunday morning in the first round of the American Legion Region V Tournament at VA Memorial Stadium.

And, thanks to their offenses, both picked up wins on the mound to help their teams advance further into the winners' bracket.

Behind Chester, the Colts (13-19) topped Hillsboro 129 by a 12-1 final in seven innings as the Riverbats (12-10), behind Popp, beat Portsmouth 23 by a 7-1 count.

In the early contest, 757 put up a run in the bottom of the first inning after Chester struck out the side. That set the tone for the rest of the day's action.

"Jacob was solid all day and he worked ahead all day," 757 coach Tom Barr said. "He had a couple of games where he got roughed up pretty good, especially on our Carolina trip. But he's been a solid starter for us for three years now. He knows how to get better and he's gotten better every outing. Not many teams are going to hit the ball against him when he works like he did today. He was zoned in and that's what we expect."

Brian Smith came around to score the game's first run on a Hillsboro fielding error, making it 1-0. In the second, Trenton Harris tripled and scored on a passed ball before Smith reached third, after walking, and stole home to give the Colts a 3-0 edge.

Hillsboro (13-25) went 1-2-3 in the top of the third, making way for 757 to tack on four more, making it 7-0 thanks to a passed ball, a two-run double from Harris and an RBI triple from Hayden Henness.

In the fifth, the Colts scored two more on a two-run single from Eli Kunkel before scoring three in the sixth on a bases-loaded walk, a sacrifice fly and an RBI fielder's choice. Post 129 scored its only run — unearned — in the top of the inning.

"We had 12 hits and 12 runs today. What it really came down to was timely hitting," Barr said. "We want to go out and string some things together. That's what we were able to do. It's a game changer and we saw that today."

Chester threw all seven frames, allowing three hits and striking out nine in 93 pitches. Harris led the Colts' offense, finishing 3-for-4 with a double, triple, three runs and two RBIs. Smith followed by going 1-for-2 with three runs and an RBI while Kunkel finished 2-for-4 with a pair of runs batted in.

After 757 exited its dugout, the Riverbats took to theirs and quickly found out Popp was taking no prisoners.

The right-hander out of Southeastern High School continued to mow down Portsmouth's lineup, allowing his team to figure out how to put runs on the board. Trailing 1-0 in the bottom of the fourth, 62's offense finally broke through.

Gage Jones started the party with a one-out double before scoring on a fielder's choice to force a tie. After right fielder Jeremy Brooks nailed a runner trying to score at home plate to end the top of the fifth, 62 took a lead and kept it.

Russell Throckmorton doubled with one out, making way for Brooks to single up the gut. With runners on the corners and one out, Jones tripled to deep center field, giving the Riverbats a 3-1 advantage. Jones then scored on an RBI single from Owen Diehl, stretching the lead to 4-1.

In the seventh, Jones drove in Popp to make it 5-1 before both Josh McCorkle and Izak Diehl crossed home plate in the eighth to produce the game's final tally.

Popp got the victory in six innings of work. He allowed five hits and did not surrender an earned run. Josh George threw three innings of relief, allowing two hits.

At the dish, Jones was 2-for-5 with a double, triple, two runs and three RBIs. Popp finished 2-for-4 with a run and an RBI while Throckmorton was 1-for-4 with a double and a run.

The Riverbats will now face Waverly 142 at 9 a.m. Monday as the Colts take on top-seeded Circleville 134 at 3 p.m. Both games will be played at VA Memorial Stadium in the championship quarterfinals portion of the winners' bracket.

CHILLICOTHE - In their first two contests this summer, Waverly Post 142 outscored Chillicothe Post 757 by a total of 18-6.

Tuesday night, however, the Colts (9-14) turned the tables on the Shockers (9-10), beating Waverly 11-5.

Chillicothe’s Jacob Chester picked up the win on the hill, throwing four innings, allowing three runs on seven hits, and striking out four.

Behind Chester was a powerful offensive surge that included 16 hits.

The Colts scored seven in the bottom of the first and three more in the second to take a quick 10-0 lead, chasing Waverly starter Hayden Baker from the mound without recording an out.

Chillicothe’s offense was led by Cody Hendershot and Anthony Sipple, who combined to go 6-for-8 with six RBIs, three doubles, and four runs. Brian Smith was 3-for-4 with a run and an RBI, Tommy Preston was 2-for-3 with an RBI, and Bo Dratwa finished 1-for-3 with two RBIs and a run.

At the plate for Waverly, Derek Burke went 2-for-4 with an RBI while Jared Alley finished 3-for-4 with a double and a pair of RBIs.

Waverly will be back in action Wednesday night, traveling to Portstmouth, while Chillicothe travels to Jackson Thursday night.

CHILLICOTHE - In its first two meetings with Chillicothe Post 757 this summer, Chillicothe Post 62 was outscored 12-3 in two losses.

But the third meeting was a charm for the Riverbats (10-7) as they beat the Colts on Wednesday night by a 6-1 final at Ross County Park.

The victory came on the heels of a superb pitching performance from starter Josh George, who tossed all seven innings without allowing an earned run. The right-handed knuckleballer struck out four, walked two and allowed nine hits.

"Josh wanted this game bad," Post 62 coach Bo Popp said. "He played for Post 757 last year so he told me: 'I'm going all seven innings.' I just told him to do what he does. But he pitched well tonight and carried us."

While the Colts (7-13) were kept off balance thanks to George, Post 62's offense tagged the ball well throughout the game. Facing Colts' starter Jacob Chester, the Riverbats came up with timely hitting and took advantage of each Post 757 fielding miscue.

"Right now, we're in the swing of things and we're hitting the baseball like we should right at the right times," Popp said. "These boys are playing their hearts out. I'm extremely proud of them."

In the bottom of the first, Post 62 took an early 1-0 edge when Russell Throckmorton pranced home on an RBI single off the bat of Gage Jones. That lead would stay the same until the bottom of the fourth.

Hunter Hopkins started the fourth with a single into left field, followed by a double from Tanner Doles to put runners on second and third with none gone. After Chester struck the next batter out, Throckmorton singled into right field, scoring Hopkins and moving Doles to third. With the score 2-0, Jeremy Brooks grounded out to second, plating Doles and making it 3-0.

Carson Stauffer then stepped to the plate with two outs and singled home Throckmorton, allowing the lead to swell to 4-0.

Post 757 finally got on the board in the top of the fifth. Hayden Henness led the inning off with a single before moving to second on a sacrifice bunt. Henness then scored on an RBI single from Zack Stapleton, cutting the deficit to 4-1.

But that was the only run the Colts would muster.

In the bottom of the sixth, Post 62 added two more insurance runs on RBI singles from Owen Diehl and Tanner Popp to seal the deal.

"We're playing really good baseball right now, and we feel like we're hitting our stride at the right time," Bo Popp said. "We beat Athens in the 12th inning in our last game and we won like we did tonight. We've got to use that momentum now to get the ball rolling even more."

The Riverbats pounded out a team total of 15 hits; six players had two each. Both teams left nine on the base paths.

For Post 62, Throckmorton was 2-for-4 with two runs and an RBI; Stauffer was 2-for-4 with a run, two stolen bases, and an RBI; Jones was 2-for-3 with a run and an RBI; Diehl was 2-for-4 with an RBI; Popp was 2-for-4 with an RBI; and Doles was 2-for-3 with a run.

Chester took the loss for the Colts, throwing six innings and allowing six runs — five earned — on 15 hits. The southpaw struck out three and walked one.

At the plate, Henness finished 2-for-3 with a run and Stapleton was 2-for-3 with an RBI. Eli Kunkel and Bo Dratwa both chipped in as well, going 2-for-4 and 2-for-2, respectively.

Post 757 will be back in action Thursday night against Hillsboro Post 129 at Hoffman Field in Chillicothe's Mary Lou Patton Park. Post 62 also will play again Thursday, traveling to Branch Rickey Park to take on Portsmouth Post 23.

CHILLICOTHE - The Scioto Valley Conference unveiled its 2016 spring all-conference teams Tuesday and both Zane Trace's Pierce Mowery and Unioto's Brooke Blevins walked away with the biggest pieces of hardware.

Mowery was named the 2016 Baseball Player of the Year while Blevins took home 2016 Softball Player of the Year honors. Mowery's Pioneers won the league with a mark of 12-2 and posted an overall record of 20-7. Blevins' Shermans also topped the conference at 12-2 while going 19-7 overall.

During his senior year — the first full season of baseball he's played since eighth grade — Mowery hit like a mad man. In 96 official at-bats, the shortstop collected 49 base knocks, hitting .510. He also scored a league-leading 45 runs and stole 18 bases. When called upon, he also saw success on the mound, throwing nine innings and allowing just one earned run; an ERA of 0.78.

Blevins, also a senior, did her damage in the pitcher's circle and at the plate. In the circle, Blevins was 18-5 with a 1.49 ERA. In 164 innings pitched, she struck out 178 hitters while walking just 13. At the plate, she was 33-for-77 on the year, a .429 average. Going alongside those numbers was a total of 14 runs scored, four stolen bases, and a team-high 27 RBIs.

10 to Comprehend: Hot Corners, Courtesy of  Derrick Webb, Reporter8:59 p.m. EDT April 9, 2016

Huntington's Devon Byrd may just be the hottest third baseman out there, especially with a bat in his hands. The senior team leader leads the Huntsmen with 12 RBIs and three doubles. He's hitting .450 (9-for-22) and has scored 10 times. For good measure, he's also 1-0 on the hill, with a 2.52 ERA. He's a jack of all trades. With Byrd leading the team, Huntington is currently 5-1, after a 2015 season where the team was mediocre at best.

For Chillicothe, in just five games, I'm convinced that junior third baseman Jordie Valentine has more than solidified his place as the everyday third baseman. In limited action, Valentine is just 2-for-8 at the plate with a double and three RBIs. However, during his time at the hot corner, he's been magnificent with his glove. For a Cavaliers' team that is riddled with errors, Valentine's defensive prowess has to be extremely valuable to the wins-losses category. Keep it up young man.
