The St. Joseph Mustangs bounced back from a walk-off loss Sunday at Nevada to defeat Joplin 8-0 on the road Monday at Joe Becker Stadium.
The Mustangs improve to 9-3 this season and 6-3 in the MINK League.
St. Joseph’s pitching staff limited the Outlaws to just two hits on the night. Starter Steve D’Amico threw seven scoreless innings as he struck out 13 batters and walked four. Eleazar Rojas and Billy Olsen each threw one scoreless inning of relief to cap off the win.
Kyle Uhrich homered and drove in three to lead the Mustangs’ 14-hit attack. Brody Santilli, Brady Anderson, Josh Williams and Brett Marr added two hits each.
St. Joseph travels to Ozark Tuesday for a doubleheader against the Generals. The first pitch of game one is set for 5:30 p.m.
