Two South Big Horn Little League teams picked up their first wins of the season Thursday evening at the Art Schutte Sports Complex.
The bleachers were packed for much of the evening as the Bandits’ majors’ and minors’ teams hosted doubleheaders against clubs from Thermopolis.
On the minors’ side, the Kustom LLC team got the breakthrough it was looking for, rolling to a 10-4 victory. It was their first win of the season. Jesse Reber sparked the offense with a home run.
On the bump, three Bandit pitichers kept the Thermop bats in check.
“It’s been a successful year — from the standpoint of the kids love the game and are improving,” said Michael Tanner, who manages Kustom LLC.
The improvement is most evident in the field. “The kids are learning how to cover the field, and when they throw the ball, they’re a lot more accurate than they were early in the season,” said Tanner.
