Apr. 13—KHS baseball takes care of Trinity

MANCHESTER — The Keene High baseball team beat Trinity High School, 14-1, in a five-inning affair Monday at Derryfield Park in Manchester.

Senior Peter Haas got the opening day start and the opening-day win for the Blackbirds (1-0), pitching three innings and recording four strikeouts while only giving up one hit. Junior Sharik Khan and senior Aaron Kent each got an inning of work as well.

The onslaught started in the first inning, with the Blackbirds jumping out to a 5-0 lead and never looking back from there. Another five-run inning in the fourth put the game out of reach for good.

Senior Zach Mooers went 3-3 with three RBI and scored twice. Classmate Alex Charles had two RBI, also scoring twice.

Haas walked in all three plate appearances and came around to score each time.

All-in-all, the Blackbirds recorded eight hits.

The teams meet again Wednesday, this time in Keene, for the Blackbirds' home opener. First pitch is set for 4:30 p.m.
