The Salina Stockade (1-2) and the Great Bend Boom (2-1) both threatened with rallies, but it was the Salina Stockade that eventually took advantage of them in a 7-5 win at Dean Evans Stadium.
It was a good day at the plate for the Salina Stockade's Ray Hernandez. Hernandez went 3-4, drove in one and scored one run. He doubled in the third inning and singled in the fourth and seventh innings.
Logan Trowbridge put himself in scoring position with two extra-base hits for the Great Bend Boom. He doubled in the first and third innings and singled in the sixth inning.
Steven Wisser ended up on the wrong side of the pitching decision, charged with his first loss of the year. He lasted just 2 1/3 innings, walked two, struck out two, and allowed five runs.
