Middleton singles to drive in a run

The Potters walkoff the Klamath Falls Gems to sweep the series. The Potters entered the ninth inning down 5-4. Jack Rotteveel lead off the inning by reaching first base after being hit by a pitch. Jacob Frederick followed with a walk. After the Gems recorded the first out of the inning, Grant St. Martin drove a ball up the middle to tie the game at 5. St. Martin tied the ball game up with a double in the Potters last walkoff win against the Seals. The Gems decided to intentionally walk Brian Morley, who hit a long homerun earlier in the game, and brought up Dylan Smethurst with the bases loaded and one out. Smethurst grounded into a fielder's choice that was originally ruled a double play. However, after a meeting between the umpires, Smethurst was ruled safe and the Potters won the ball game. The Potters improve to 6-3 including a 4 game winning streak while the Gems fall to 2-5.
