Mustangs scored 10 unanswered runs to win at Nevada

The St. Joseph Mustangs bounced back from their loss on Saturday night to Sedalia, as St. Joe’s summer college baseball team went to Nevada Sunday and beat the Griffons, 10-4.

The Mustangs fell behind early as they were down 4-0 after four innings, but St. Joseph struck for five runs in the fifth inning to take the lead and then scored three more in the sixth.

Kris Koerper delivered the big blow in the fifth inning with a three-run double that tied the game 4-4 and then Shane Segovia hit a sacrifice fly to give St. Joe the lead.

In the sixth inning, Kyle Simpson drove in Maxime LeFevre with a single and then Jordan Guida hit a two-out two run single to make it 8-4.

LeFevre added to the lead in the eighth inning as he stole home and then Jake Kretzer drove in a run in the ninth to cap off the scoring.

Simpson had two hits and two RBI, Mark Robinette added two hits and two runs, and LeFevre scored three runs in the game.

Aaron Baker improved to 3-1 as he went eight inning to get the victory.  Baker allowed seven hits and four runs as he struck out three and walked three.

St. Joseph improves to 15-7 this season and 11-7 in the MINK League.  They’ve won 13 of their last 16 games after a 2-4 start.
