Evan Buhr threw a complete game shutout and Chris Bullis hit a walk-off three run home run to improve the Lakers to a 3-0 record. Evan Buhr was masterful in keeping the Winsted Wildcats off-balance all night only giving up 4 hits to one of the top teams in the Crow River. He not only provided 7 innings on the mound he was 2-3 at the plate with 2 rbi's. Buhr ecstatically said, "It was just my day today, I felt like Felix Hernandez on the mound and Joe Mauer at the plate". It was a close game throughout most of the game as Josh Anthony gave Winsted a strong pitching performance as the Lakers were able to scrap a couple runs on the board. Once Anthony was lifted in the 7th the Lakers had a slew of hits getting 8 runs, which was capped off by a moon shot by Chris Bullis to end the game. "My wife told me I had to get a hit," Bullis said as he crossed the plate. Hopefully the Lakers can keep the bats alive for their make-up game against St. Boni on Tuesday, May28th.
