See the images above as well as some details below from the Eagles’ 6-0 and 4-1 victories over the Orioles:

- In Game 2, Oakridge scored two runs in the fourth and fifth innings to overcome an early 1-0 deficit.

- Miller, Jennings and Danicek each had two hits and two runs scored for Oakridge in the second game. Jennings also had two RBIs.

- Jonny Weinert took the Game 2 loss for Ludington. He allowed four runs on four hits in 4 2/3 innings.
