The Lewis-Clark Twins generated 15 hits and drew 10 walks on their way to an 11-1 victory over the Boise Senators in American Legion baseball action Sunday at Borah High.
The Twins, who improved to 3-0, led 4-0 after six innings, then erupted for five runs in the seventh and two in the eighth to invoke the mercy rule in a nonleague game scheduled for nine innings.
Chase Adkison swatted four singles, AJ Davis notched three hits and Chris Powell and Jackson Fuller added two apiece.
The Twins' plate discipline and understanding of pitches were notable, coach Kevin Maurer said.
"Over our last three games, it's been pretty impressive how we've done in the batter's box," he said.
L-C pitchers Kyle Van Boeyen and Luke White wiggled their way out of trouble several times, Maurer said. The Senators ended up stranding 11 baserunners.
The Twins' season-opening road trip continues today with a 6 p.m. PDT contest against the Boise Seminoles.
