The St. Joseph Mustangs rallied for an 8-4 victory against North Kansas City in a non-league game Wednesday night at Phil Welch Stadium.

St. Joe’s summer college baseball team extends its win streak to five games as they’re now 11-3 this season.

The Mustangs fell behind 4-0 in the sixth inning before starting their rally.

St. Joseph scored two in the bottom of the sixth as Evan McDonald scored on a wild pitch and Brady Anderson hit a sacrafice fly to score Ryan Abernathy.

Austin Aspregren came on in relief for the Mustangs in the seventh inning and got out of a bases loaded jame as he induced a 1-2-3 double play to end the inning.

St. Joe then sent 11 men to the plate in the eighth inning as they scored six runs to take the lead.

The highlight of the eighth came when Anderson hit a 3-run double to give the Mustangs their first lead at 5-4.  Kyle Richards added an RBI single and Jeremiah Figueroa hit a 2-run single to cap off the inning.

Aspegren went the final 2.2 innings for the win as he didn’t allow a hit or a run, while striking out three and walking one.

St. Joseph is back at home Thursday as they host another Ban Johnson League team in the B.J. Raiders.  The first pitch is at 7:00 p.m. and will be broadcast on 680 KFEQ AM.
