Rossville put two men on base in the top of the ninth, but a fly ball to deep right field by Cade Bunnell was caught by Junction City’s Noah Arni, allowing the Brigade to hold on for a 5-3 baseball win over the Rattlers Thursday night at Rathert Field.

Noah Draper turned in a strong performance on the mound for Junction City.

Coach Seth Wheeler said the reason Junction City won the game is because of Draper. He noted Draper went six innings on the mound. He gave up only one run despite four errors by the Brigade in the field.

Junction City and Rossville will play again Friday and Saturday nights at 7 p.m. at Rathert Field.
