EAST GRAND FORKS – The Perham Legion baseball team had a busy eight days.
The Buzz traveled around the midwest to play nine games in just over a week. The action-packed stretch ended with a doubleheader loss on the road at East Grand Forks on Monday night.
After taking game one 4-1, EGF starting pitcher Jeff Vettenrind threw a complete-game shutout in game two. He allowed only two hits and one walk in a 4-0 win. Vettenrind also struck out six batters.
Game one featured another pitching duel. Logan Pulju and EGF’s Logan Spencer kept both sides scoreless until the sixth inning.
The Buzz took a 1-0 lead in the top of the sixth inning before EGF struck for three runs in the bottom of the frame.

The Buzz is now 5-6 in the summer before heading to Alexandria for a doubleheader on Friday afternoon.
