Key Moments | Game 1
The Pioneers outhit the Lutes in the opener, 7-5, and had two more errors, although only one of those miscues led to a run. Instead, a leadoff hit-by-pitch and a wild pitch gave the Lutes a runner in scoring position with no outs in the fourth. Following a failed pickoff attempt, a run scored on a fielder's choice.
Lewis & Clark evened things up in the fifth when Blake Tellinghusen drew a bases-loaded walk. Kon, Gannon and Jakob Ghammachi had two singles and a walk, respectively, to set the table.
After Pacific Lutheran regained the lead, 3-1, Moore's one-out triple scored one, and Kon added an RBI single to tie it up at three.
Brett Pierson added five more strikeouts, allowed three runs on four hits and walked four as the Pios' starter. Tyler Shimabukuro took the loss in three innings pitched after allowing the winning run in the ninth.
Key Moments | Game 2
A two-run deficit grew to six in the sixth inning, but the Pioneers tallied two in the seventh in an attempt to rally.
Kon put the Pios on the scoreboard in the sixth with a two-run home run, his third of the season. Kon finished 1 for 4 with two RBI. Jack Savant and Justin Bailey also had hits with Bass, Thomson, Ghammachi and Kon.
