Big Sixth Inning, Solid Pitching Propels Monticello Past St. Teresa

As heard on 95.9 FM WEZC and online at dewittdailynews.com Friday afternoon, three Monticello pitchers combined to hold Decatur St. Teresa to a single hit and Daniel Peterson capped a six-run sixth inning with a mammoth two-run blast as Monticello won 11-0 in Decatur.

Daniel Caldwell started for the Sages throwing three shutout, no-hit innings, striking out seven and walking two. Konnor Bundy threw two hitless innings with two walks and three strikeouts and Garrett Myers finished with a scoreless sixth with two strikeouts.

Myers allowed the lone St. T hit but it was negated on a double play.

Jacob Burton finished 2-for-four with a double, four RBIs and a pair of runs. David Vanderkloot added three RBIs with a double and a run scored.

Tyler Jones had a pair of hits and a run in the win as well.
