The St. Joseph Mustangs picked up two wins against Nevada Wednesday night at Phil Welch Stadium as they defeated the Griffons 10-9 in 10 innings in game one and 3-2 in the nightcap.

St. Joe’s collegiate summer baseball team improves to 32-14 this season and 23-13 in the MINK League.  The Mustangs are now tied with Chillicothe for second in the North Division, two games back of Sedalia.

Game one was the completion of St. Joseph’s suspended game with Nevada from July 6th as they began the game in the top of the 10th tied 9-9.

Steve D’Amico threw a scoreless top of the 10th inning for the Mustangs and then Brady Anderson hit a walk-off pinch hit RBI single that scored Davey Casciola and gave St. Joe the victory, their first win against Nevada this season.

In game two, the Mustangs fell behind 1-0 but scored three runs on five consecutive hits in the third inning to take the lead for good.  Davey Casciola, Kyle Uhrich and Connor Bacon each had an RBI in the inning.

Jacob Hurst (3-1) earned the win on the mound as he allowed two runs on six hits in six inning of work.  Jonathan Lynch threw two perfect innings and D’Amico picked up the save with a scoreless ninth inning.

The Mustangs are on the road Thursday for a doubleheader at Springfield against the Ozark Generals.  The first pitch of game one is set for 6:00 p.m.
