BAT CATS 18, NEWTON 6 — Chase Kessler led seven Bat Cats with an RBI with three runs batted home in an 18-6 victory over Newton in Wednesday's Jayhawk Collegiate baseball game. Great Bend delivered seven runs in the fourth and fifth innings. Delivering two runs batted home were T.J. Shaw, Kirby Orth and Jaxon Bunkers. George McCarroll, Andrugh Yee and Peanut Brazzle each drove in one run. Starter Murphy struck out six batters. Reliever Zachary Alarid (1.00 ERA) worked out of a bases-loaded fifth-inning jam. The Bat Cats took advantage of eight walks, five players hit by pitches and seven Newton errors that led to six unearned runs. Newton's Dellen Claasen drilled a 2-run homer. First-place Great Bend (21-7, 19-7 Jayhawk) ends a 7-game road trip Friday at Junction City (19-7, 17-7 Jayhawk).
