Dostal & Kirk claim Bucyrus Little League title BUCYRUS -- The road to the Little League City Championship wasn't an easy one for Dostal & Kirk, but it made Friday night's 6-5 win over United Bank that much sweeter. Dostal & Kirk trailed 6-1 in the bottom of the fifth during a semifinal game against Kiwanis, and rallied to score nine runs en route to a 10-7 victory. That secured a spot in the championship game. Their win over United Bank happened in a similar fashion. "Our goal this year was to win the championship, and I'm really proud of our kids for working hard," D&K coach Jerry Stone said. "We've had our games where we look like the 'Bad News Bears' and we've had games like tonight." Tied 2-2 heading into the top of the fifth, D&K scored four runs on two outs to take a 6-2 advantage. Brandon Shutler hit the center field fence for an RBI triple making it 3-2, and from there D&K added a single and two doubles before United Bank retired the inning. "We haven't done that all year," Stone said. It was in the top of the third when United Bank tied it 2-2, thanks to MacKenton Johnson's home run way over the left center fence into the parking lot. Johnson ripped another home run in the bottom of the sixth with two outs making it 6-5. "Unfortunately, we haven't been in a lot of positions where we were down this year," United Bank coach Matt Johnson said. "We've got up on teams, and it's a position we haven't been in, but I'm proud of the way the kids performed." For D&K (14-4), Zack Moore tripled and Caleb Stone and Zack Houck doubled. Trey Stone, Houck and Moore all finished with two hits. For United Bank (14-2), Johnson tripled and homered twice, Alex Crall doubled and Jordan Imbody, Nick Imbody and Jordan Lutz had two hits. "This team we've coached together for quite some time," Johnson said. "We've taken our lumps, and to play like we have all year with the younger kids stepping up, and older guys that have been with the team for three years, to have this kind of season was great."
