Mustangs overcome 4-0 deficit to defeat Clarinda

The St. Joseph Mustangs got back in the win column Saturday night as they defeated Clardina 9-7 inside Phil Welch Stadium.

St. Joe’s collegiate summer baseball team had its six-game win streak snapped Friday by Sedalia, but with the win Saturday they improve to 19-6 this season and 14-6 in the MINK League.

The Mustangs had to rally Saturday as they fell behind 4-0 in the top of the third inning. St. Joseph answered back with nine unanswered runs as they scored three in the bottom of the third, two in the fifth inning and four runs in the sixth.

Brady Anderson had two doubles and three RBI to lead the Mustangs’ offense, while Matt Wollnik added two hits. Brody Santilli scored three times as well.

Michael Lydon-Lorson grinded through six innings to improve to 3-0 on the mound. He gave up four earned runs and seven hits, but struck out five and didn’t walk a batter.

The Mutangs are on the road Sunday as they play at Jefferson City. The first pitch is at 7:00 p.m. from Vivian Field.
