The St. Joseph Mustangs had their four-game winning streak snapped Wednesday night as they were shutout by the Kansas City Monarchs, 3-0, in a non-league game at Phil Welch Stadium.

St. Joe’s summer college baseball team struggled offensively Wednesday as they no baserunner reached second base until the ninth inning and that was the only frame they had multiple runners on base.

Andrew Standifer and Mike Sherburne had singles in the first inning, but the Mustangs didn’t get another hit until the seventh.

Sherburne had two of the five Mustang hits in the game.

The Monarchs offense didn’t do much either as they had just three hits.  But the biggest hit came from former Mustang Jordan Hurtt as he led off the sixth with a triple and scored on a Morgan Johann sacrifice fly.

Kansas City added two more in the eighth inning without getting a hit.  The Monarchs were able to draw two walks in the inning and St. Joe committed an error.  The Monarchs they scored one run on a passed ball and another on a wild pitch.

Mustangs’ starter Miles Gully (2-2) was the tough luck loser as he went 7.1 innings, allowing two runs on three hits.  Gully struck out two and walked one.

St. Joseph is now 19-7 this season and they get back into MINK League play Thursday as they play at Joplin.  The first pitch is at 7:00 p.m.
