The Tri-County Titans Junior Legion team traveled to Stanton Tuesday, June 21, for baseball action with the Stanton seniors.

Aside from the bottom of the second inning, it was a close game throughout. Coach Jeff Shabram said his Titan squad showed "much improvement."

"Especially when compared to when Stanton traveled to Orchard to play the second game of the season," he said.

The final score of Tuesday's game was Tri-County juniors, 8 and Stanton seniors, 16.

Scoring for the Titans were William Drobny, two runs; Isaac Pavlik, two runs; Kaiden Bauer, one run; Dane Miller, one run; Jake Schroeder, one run and Riley Saul, one run.

Pitching duties were shared among William Drobny, who started the contest, Joseph Pavelka, Jake Schroeder and Wyatt Shabram, who came in to close.

"With Stanton having some big senior players, I thought our defense held up pretty well, including Connor Thomson being a force behind the plate, blocking wild pitches and throwing runners out," Shabram said. "The infielders did a nice job keeping the ball in front and assisting in throwing runners out on the bases. The outfielders especially had a busy and productive game, putting away many fly-outs."

Outfielders were Isaac Pavlik, Pavelka, Schroeder, Bauer, Landon McAllister and Keenan McAllister.

"And, at the plate and on the bases, the Titans continue to be aggressive. We only struck out three times the entire game, and nearly all of our runs were scored on RBI hits. That truly is improved offensive baseball," Shabram said.

Box score:

Tri-County: 0 4 0 2 2 = 8

Stanton 2 7 5 0 =16
