After Fast Start, Vigilantes Fall

Things couldn’t have started better or ended much worse Sunday for the Vigilantes, who lost to Bend, 11-2, in a Western League game at Vince Genna Stadium in Bend, Ore.

The Vigilantes’ Willie Mosher started the game by hitting a home run, his first of the season, but the team didn’t score again until the sixth.

Sam Taylor drove in that run with a single off the scoreboard in right field.

The loss drops the Vigilantes to 3-4 in the second half of the season.

Andres Duncan and Bernie Nunez also had three hits for Bend.

Chris White (5-4) gave up four hits and struck out six in eight innings for the victory.

Mark Drager (3-2) gave up 10 hits and six runs in five innings to take the loss.

Mike Moutrey, Corey Parker and Sean Drinkwater had the only other hits--all singles--for the Vigilantes.
