DES MOINES — The ninth-ranked (Class 4A) Fort Dodge baseball team picked up a dominating doubleheader sweep over Des Moines East here Monday night.

Scores were 27-4 in the opener in four innings and 17-2 in five in the nightcap.

Davis Underberg plated five runs, going 2-for-4 with four runs scored and two steals, as Tru McBride hit a home run and drove in two with three runs scored in the first.

Cael Adams pitched all four innings, striking out seven while helping his own cause with two hits and three RBI. Kolton Schiltz, Bo Marsh and Tanner Peterson each drove in two.

Caiden Fraher and Will McElroy scored eight combined runs, as Mason Frevert scored twice.

Fort Dodge (21-4 overall) plated six runs in the first, four in the second, six in the third and 11 in the fourth.

“I honestly can’t recall having a day at the plate like that in a doubleheader,” FDSH head coach Blake Utley said. “The guys were just on fire. Offense was definitely the name of the game.

“And the best part was, we had kids producing that we put in after our starters. It’s always great to see those guys get a chance and produce.”

McBride had his second homer of the day in game two, adding a double while going 2-for-3 with six RBI. Schiltz scored three times and drove in two, Jaxson Dencklau, McElroy and Underberg each scored twice, and Peterson had a pair of RBI.

Marsh added two doubles and Reggie Pederson scored three runs.

The Dodgers put up six in the second, three in the third, six again in the fourth and two more in the fifth, as McElroy pitched three-plus to earn the win, striking out three. Dencklau retired all four batters he faced by way of strikeout.

Up next for Fort Dodge will be a single game at Humboldt on Tuesday night.
