INCOMPLETE STORY...  But the biggest rally-killer of the evening, which stopped Chico once early and squashed walk-fueled Easties surges in the fifth and sixth, was the nine batter rule.  Were it not for that, Chico's wildness on the mound might've allowed East to make things interesting indeed.  In the fifth, Howard McDonald led off with a triple and Joel Brockman followed with an RBI single.  Then the EBs accepted six straight free passes--five walks and a hit batsman--to total five runs before the nine-batter limit sent them back to the field.  Six more walks and an error allowed four more runs in the sixth.  "I think we just relaxed a lot," Chesser said of his hurlers' inability to find the strike zone once they had pulled out to the 11-run lead.  "We've got five guys who can pitch."  Baker started and finished on the mound Wednesday, giving up one earned runs in three innings' work, then coming on to face the last two batters in the sixth.  "He's been a find (as a pitcher)," Chesser said of Baker.  "He didn't pitch until the third-to-last game of the season.  He does a good job--he's probably the headiest kid on my team."  In Wednesday's game, Norris-Eley and TJ Rhodes each had three of Chico's 14 hits, including two doubles apiece.  Norris-Eley also totaled five RBIs.  Baker, Robert Pese and Conner Chesser added two hits each.  For East Bremerton, Howard McDonald and Brockman each were 2 for 2 at the plate.  McDonald also pitched the last three innings, striking out four.
