The Junction City baseball team scrimmage was scoreless after three inning, but over the course of the next three innings the Black team, comprised of varsity players put 13 runs on the board to win 13-0.

Numerous pitching and hitting combinations were used and at times varsity pitchers spent some time on the mound for the junior varsity Blue team in this scrimmage, played before a strong turnout of fans at Rathert Field.

Blue Jay coach Pat Stivers said he thought his team did some good things. “I thought we got some good pitches to hit, we hit some balls hard that the defense made good plays and caught. I’m encouraged by what I saw offensively tonight.”

Junction City opens the season by hosting Garden City in a doubleheader at 3 p.m. on Monday.
