CHILLICOTHE — Rapid Fired Pizza would be proud.
It took just an hour and 25 minutes to play the Division 3 district semifinal game on Tuesday at Paints Stadium.
But the result left a bad taste in the mouths of the South Point Pointers who lost 4-0 to the Portsmouth Trojans.
Pointers’ pitcher Braydon Hanshaw limited Portsmouth to just 4 hits and 2 earned run with 6 strikeouts and no walks.
But the Pointers couldn’t put anything together as the Trojans Tyler Duncan gave up only 5 hits as he struck out 7 and walked one.
The Trojans (24-3) got a run in the first and 3 in the third with Trevin Brooks getting a 2-run single.
Gage Chapman was 2-3 to pace the Pointers (17-11). Corey Otzenberger, Xavier Haney and Rece Craft were all 1-3.
J.T. Williams was 1-3 with an RBI, Brooks 1-3 with 2 RBI, Vinnie Lonardo 1-2 and Reade Pendleton 1-3 to lead the Trojans who will play Lucasville Valley Thursday in the district finals.
Valley blanked Meigs 2-0.
