The first Chace Numata Senior All-Star Game at Les Murakami Stadium went out with a bang.

Hilo’s Legend Lancaster delivered a two-out single up the middle to cap a four-run bottom of the ninth inning to help the Aloha Stars rally over the Hawaiian Stars, 10-9, Friday night in the fourth annual event.

The game honors the memory of Chace Numata, a 2010 graduate of Pearl City. Numata was a 14th-round draft pick by the Philadelphia Phillies before landing in the Detroit Tigers organization. He died in 2019 from injuries in a skateboard mishap while he was playing for the Tigers’ Double-A team, the Erie SeaWolves. Numata was 27.
