The Kennewick AAA Outlaws won a couple of blowouts Sunday in games against Showtime and the Cowlitz River Pilots at the Red Devil Classic in Centralia.
The Outlaws were led in their 11-1, 4-inning victory over Cowlitz by Tyler Detloff, who had two hits and drove in three runs. The Outlaws led just 3-1 heading into the bottom of the third where they exploded for eight runs to put them in line to invoke the mercy rule.
In their afternoon contest, Kennewick topped Showtime 9-0 in a game the Outlaws scored in each of their four at-bats. Austin Bergdahl had a couple knocks and drove in a pair in the victory, and Hunter Mulderig and Andrew Vargas combined to give up just one hit in the five-inning contest.

The second half of the doubleheader was another back-and-forth contest that saw the Bandits take a two-run lead into the sixth, but the Beetles followed with a three-run frame that set the game at its 8-7 final. Williams drove in three more runs in the second game and had a double.
