The Laramie Rangers and Colorado Bandits will not try again afterall on Sunday to finish their Firecracker Invitational matchup.
The American Legion baseball game between the Rangers and the Bandits (Parker, Colo.), 26-9, was stopped Saturday night due to rain. The game was tentatively scheduled to resume at 9 a.m. on Sunday at Cowboy Field, but late Saturday night it was determined that the field conditions would not be suitable for play on Sunday and the rest of the tournament was canceled.
Laramie, 19-9, was credited with the victory, as the game was reverted back to the fifth inning and the Rangers up 1-0.
The Rangers took a 1-0 lead in the third inning off of a RBI single by catcher Jon Sorenson that sent left fielder Brody Hilgenkamp home.
Behind the strong pitching from Jordan Rhodine, the Ranger lead would last up until the sixth when Colorado left fielder Nate Holt hit a two-out fly ball to right field where Tyler Mitchell couldn't quite hang on during a diving attempt. The drop allowed Bandit center fielder Alex Schrupp to score the go ahead run.
