The Junction City Brigade ( 8-5 ) scored 13 runs in the first two innings and rolled on to defeat the Ottawa River Bandits 18-2 in a game called after seven innings due to a run rule.
Drew Repp was strong on the mount early for Junction City and the Brigade turned in a big ten-run second inning where 13 hitters went to the plate. Brigade coach Derek Francis noted his team jumped on the River Bands right away from the beginning. “The thing about the second inning is that we scored all 10 runs with two outs. ” The Brigade totaled four hits, had one batter hit by a pitch and drew four walks in that half inning.
Junction City will host the River Bandits again Saturday night at 7 p.m. You can hear that contest on 1420 KJCK AM with the broadcast beginning at 6:50 a.m.
