BASEBALL
Bend High rallies for wild win — The Lava Bears scored nine runs in the final two innings to defeat McNary 10-9 on Saturday and complete a sweep of the Celtics in a Mountain Valley Conference doubleheader. Caden Mathisen hit an RBI double to tie the game 5-5 in the bottom of the sixth and cap a five-run inning for Bend. McNary scored three runs in the top of the seventh to take a 9-6 lead. But in the bottom of the seventh, Tysen Scott and Reece Gordon each hit RBI singles, then sophomore catcher Kaleb Karpstein hit a game-winning two-run double off the center-field fence at Bend High. Players and coaches dog-piled in the infield in celebration, Bend coach Quinn Clair said. “We have had a tough time,” Clair said. “We’ve split with all the Salem schools. Jumping up from 5A to 6A, there’s a massive difference in the way that teams play. Every one of our losses this year is by one or two runs. So that was a super emotional win for us. It was our first sweep of a Salem school. To score nine runs in the last two innings was incredible.” Bend (7-4 MVC, 17-6 overall) has one regular-season game remaining at Mountain View on Tuesday and appears headed for the Class 6A playoffs.
