Lumberjacks sweep opening day with a walk-off!

The Lumberjacks started the 2011 SRL League season with a bang, sweeping a doubleheader against the Oakland Expos with a walk-off home run.

Game 1 starter Mike Miller went 7 string innings getting the win, and also had a key 2-out bases-clearing double in the first to give the Jacks a 3-1 lead and they would never look back, cruising to a 14-4 victory. Danny Rico had a double and a triple, Rob Enriquez had 3 hits and 2 RBI's, Wes Bentley had 3 hits and 4 RBI's, Brad Shannon had 3 hits, and Tom Macari had 2 hits with a double and 2 RBI's.

Game 2 featured the biggest moment in Lumberjacks league history. Down 4-2 in the final inning, Wayne Franklin (who started on the mound and got the win) walked, Alque Ryan hustled out an infield single, and Rob Enriquez drilled a walk-off 3-run homer over the right-centerfield wall to give the Lumberjacks the victory.
