The Shorewood baseball team goes for a sweep of a three-game series with Shorecrest Saturday after the Thunderbirds defeated the Scots, 8-0 Wednesday to go with a 4-0 victory Tuesday.

The two teams meet at the Meridian Park field at 5pm Saturday in the final game of a day that includes a varsity softball game between the two schools at 2:30pm, a junior varsity baseball game between Shorewood and Shorecrest at noon and a junior varsity softball game between Shorewood and Bothell at 9:30am.

In Shorewood's 8-0 victory at Shorecrest Wednesday, Thunderbird catcher Jacob Bockelie hit three doubles in four at bats with two RBI and a run scored; teammates Kory Longaker and Avery Foltz each hit triples; and winning pitcher Sam Boone threw six scoreless innings, with relief from Cole McKission in the seventh. Nik Hendricks was the losing pitcher for Shorecrest with relief from Jake Oliver.

Shorewood had defeated Shorecrest at Meridian Park Tuesday after winning at Everett, 17-0, Monday. The three victories this week give the Thunderbirds a 4-0 Wesco 3A record (7-0 overall). Shorecrest is 1-3, 2-5.

The Shorewood junior varsity defeated the Shorecrest JVs, 12-2, at Meridian Park Wednesday after winning 17-6, at Shorecrest Tuesday. The T-bird JVs take a 4-0 Wesco 3A record (6-0 overall) into the Saturday game against the Scot JVs (0-4, 1-6).
