Baker, Mustangs blank Sedalia for fifth straight victory

riggertMustangsThe St. Joseph Mustangs extended their win streak to five games Saturday night at Phil Welch Stadium with an 8-0 shutout of the Sedalia Bombers.

St. Joe’s summer college baseball team improves to 13-8 this season and they’re 9-8 in MINK league play.

Mustangs’ starter Aaron Baker earned the win as he went eight inning and allowed just seven hits.  Baker struck out 10 and walked two as he is now 3-1 and lowers his season ERA to 0.58.

St. Joseph got on the board in the fourth inning with a sacrafice fly from Griff Gordon and they didn’t get their first hit until the fifth.

The Mustangs broke the game open with a two-run sixth, three runs in the seventh and two more in the eighth inning.

Gordon led the way with two hits and three RBI, while Zac Johnson drove in two runs.

St. Joe is on the road Sunday as they play at Chillicothe.  The first pitch is at 7:00 p.m. and can be heard on 680 KFEQ and here on stjosephpost.com.
