FERGUS FALLS – Fergus Falls’ four-run seventh inning to tie the game didn’t deter the Bemidji American Legion baseball team from picking up a doubleheader sweep.

Trailing 8-4 and down to its final three outs, Fergus Falls plated four runs via a bases-loaded walk, a fielder’s choice and a wild pitch.

It set the table for a bases-loaded, two-RBI single from Lawson Berg in the top of the eighth. Beg later scored on a sacrifice fly to give the Centaurs an 11-8 win.

Berg went 3 for 5 at the plate with a pair of doubles and three RBIs. Stonewall Gessner and Lundquist each went 2 for 5.

In the first game, Bemidji beat Fergus Falls 10-2 behind Peyton Neadeau’s complete game on the mound. He allowed two earned runs on ten hits with two walks and six strikeouts in seven innings.

At the plate, Fisher Ganske was 2 for 5 with an RBI and two runs scored. Lundquist went 3 for 4 with three RBIs, while Max Bahr went 1 for 3 with two RBIs.
