BATH — Morse High School pitcher Trent Moore hooked up against Oceanside hurler Dylan Maloney in a Kennebec Valley Athletic Conference Class B baseball battle on Thursday.

Moore and his Shipbuilders managed to come out on top, taking a 2-1 decision to improve to 9-2, while Oceanside fell to 5-5.

Moore permitted six hits, allowing his only run when Maloney singled and scored on a double by Anthony Campagnoli in the first inning.

The Morse defense was solid, including a double-play turn by Gary Stevens, Zach Groat and Chris Paulus to end the third inning.

Maloney kept the Shipbuilders off the board through six innings. In the Morse seventh, Wade Hunt walked and Liam McDonough singled to put two runners on with one out. Aaron Barrett followed with a single to score Hunt with the tying run, and Paulus ended the game with a walk-off single for the 2-1 win. “These two teams played the best high school baseball game that I have ever seen,” said Morse assistant coach Rick Davis, whose Shipbuilders visit Winslow today at 4:15 p.m. “I have never been so proud of a group of kids in my life. They are a team and play hard the entire time.”
