Prep Wrestling 2B Baseball Tigers Top Ducks, 7-4, in Extra Innings

By The Chronicle TOUTLE — The Tigers missed their chance to seal the win in regulation, but two extra innings provided just enough time for Napavine to get it together and earn a 7-4 Central 2B League baseball victory over Toutle Lake here on Friday. Napavine went into the the seventh inning trailing 3-2 before putting in 2 more runs for the lead. The Ducks answered back by adding another run for the 4-4 stalemate. The Tigers had plenty of opportunities to put the Ducks away, leaving 12 runners on base in regulation play. “I think we missed a lot of opportunities,” Napavine coach Brian Demarest said. “We couldn’t push through in seven and Toutle’s a tough club.” After a fruitless eighth inning,

MLS College Football Huskies Safety Budda Baker Getting a Look at Punt Returner, and on Offense By Christian Caple The Tacoma News Tribune SEATTLE — He was only a freshman last season, so Budda Baker’s role on the University of Washington football team was un- derstandably limited — limited to a whole lot of defense and a whole lot of special teams, that is. So much so that he played more total snaps than anybody else on the team. But now that Baker is older and has a more thorough grasp of his defensive responsibilities, the talented sophomore from Bellevue Ted S. Warren / The Associated Press might see the field even more often Seattle Sounders’ Clint Dempsey, left, and Lamar Neagle, right, move with the ball in the irst half of an MLS soccer match against the Houston Dynamo, Sat- — and in different ways — in 2015. urday in Seattle.

Aside from Joe Gibbs Racing having to find a fill-in for Busch — David Ragan is driving Busch’s No. 18 Toyota – Busch’s injuries reignited a safety debate in NAS- CAR. The accident happened at a part of the Daytona track not covered by energy-absorbing SAFER barriers.
