Grantsville got out to a 6-0 lead after 5 innings and then held on for a 6-3 victory over county neighbor Tooele. The win improves their region record to 4-1 on the season.
After a shut out first, the Cowboys put the first run on the board in their half of the inning. Quinton Smith drew a walk. He moved to 2nd on a Drew Sutton sacrifice & to third on a wild pitch. He scored on a Skyler Cloward ground out. In the 3rd Q got things going again with a 1 out single. He stole 2nd & 3rd and scored on a Cloward single. Grantsville extended the lead to 4-0 in the 4th as Manny Begay & Dalen Erickson both scored on a Tooele throwing error. In the 5th Cloward got things going again with a leadoff double. Kelby Landon drove in Cloward with a ground ball and Dalen Erickson drove in a run with a sacrifice fly. The Buffaloes made a run late in the game to cut the lead to 6-3, but couldn't get any closer.
Cloward got the nod on the hill and went the distance picking up the victory. He allowed 4 hits while striking out 12.
Grantsville takes a break from league action as they travel to Logan on Thursday for a 3:30 game and then to Davis HS for a doubleheader on Saturday starting at 11:00.
