Loggers stay alive

ROSEBURG, Ore. - A 5-for-6 night by Sean Sutton led a 23-hit attack as the Coeur d'Alene Loggers outslugged South Anchorage, Alaska, 21-11 in a loser-out game at the Northwest A regional American Legion tournament on Sunday.

Brett Robbins, D.J. Sutton, Nick Nyquist and Jesse O’Hagan added three hits apiece for Coeur d’Alene (39-22), which advances to today’s consolation bracket final. The Loggers will face either Montana or Utah at a time to be determined.

“Early on, both teams made some mental and physical errors ... but we had 23 hits, and that gave our pitchers a cushion,” Coeur d’Alene coach Tom Barlow said. “After the third inning, our pitchers really settled down and kept them off the board.”

Zach Osmanski earned the win in relief.

S. Anchorage 162 001 10 - 11 13 3
