In the fourth, Cary extended the lead to 3-0 when David Hamm singled in Colantino, who had singled and stolen second base.<\/p>\n<p>But a disastrous fifth inning, which included two runs scoring on a bases-loaded walk and a balk by Cary pitcher James Todd, was the beginning of the end of the Post 67 season. Kernersville&#8217;s Evan Orenstein capped off the seven-run inning with a three-run homer off Cary&#8217;s Gerrit Van Genderen.<\/p>\n<p>Cary ends its season 22-10.
