The Daily Inter Lake

WHITEFISH - Libby used a home run by Joe Coker and three-hit pitching by Chris Herbig in the opener and a RBI single in the sixth inning by Eric Riddle in the second game to edge the Glacier Twins 3-2 and 4-2 on Tuesday in a nonconference Class A American Legion baseball doubleheader.

Coker led off the second inning with his round-tripper to tie the game at 1-1.

In the second game, Coker slammed a two-out single in the sixth, then scored on Riddle's single to break a 2-all tie.

Libby improves to 10-12 overall.

Glacier received a strong pitching effort from Devyn Rocker in the second game. He held Libby to four hits.

"Our pitching was pretty good," Twins coach Nick Schwanz said.

"Our defense was not up to par."

Glacier had five errors in the second game.

"If we would have had some timely hits, we would have been better off," Schwanz said.

"But the team is working hard, getting better."

Carl Talsma went 2-for-3 for the Twins in the opener and 2-for-4 in the nightcap.
