The Portland Pickles (2-1) overwhelmed the Wenatchee AppleSox (1-2) with crooked innings from the second through fifth to take the rubber match of the weekend series, 11-1, on Sunday.

The PIckles scored four times in the second, twice in the third , twice more in the fourth and three times in the fifth to wrap up the series with a win. Leftfielder Ryan Guardino led the way with three doubles and 3 RBI.

The AppleSox’ only run came in the top of the third when Wenatchee Valley College catcher Ben Leid led off with a home run over the short fence in right field. Adam Grob doubled with one out and Luc Stuka hit a bloop double to left to put runners at second and third, but the Sox failed to drive either in and the deficit only grew from there.

AppleSox starter Reid Rasmussen (0-1) tossed a scoreless first but ran into trouble in the second when he faced eight men and allowed a pair of extra base hits, two walks and balked in a run. Jasper Nelson tossed two scoreless innings and Martin Hawell stuck out the side while not allowing any runs in the ninth.

The AppleSox are off on Monday before playing six games in as many days as home. It all starts on Tuesday with three games against the Walla Walla Sweets, who took two of three games this weekend against the Cowlitz Black Bears. Tuesday’s game is a $2 Off Tuesday with tickets and select concession items $2 off. Wednesday’s game is an AppleSox Lunch Box Giveaway Night. With Apple Blossom Festival and the AppleSox both in town this week, it’s a great time to be in Wenatchee. Tickets to all AppleSox home games can be purchased at AppleSox.com/tickets.
