Rangely couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They wound up on the wrong side of a tough 16-1 walloping at the hands of the Steamboat Springs Sailors on Wednesday. The defeat means Rangely is still on the hunt for the season's first 'W'.
Rangely saw five different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Kobey Chism, who went 1-for-4 with two stolen bases.
On Steamboat Springs' side, Damien Dobson made a big impact while hitting and pitching. He didn't allow a single earned run while striking out 12 over five innings pitched. Dobson was also solid in the batter's box, going 3-for-4 with a double.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Cj Waters, who scored four runs and stole three bases while going 1-for-2. Jude Fesperman was another key contributor, scoring a run and stealing two bases while going 1-for-2.
