The Red team recorded a 4-0 win over the White squad, totaling its four runs on six hits and an error. The White team was held to just two hits and committed three errors in the seven-inning scrimmage.

Red’s Tucker Timmerman allowed just one hit in three shutout innings of work and had a pair of strikeouts.

Ryan Harrahill took the loss after giving up three runs on five hits in three innings. Colin Nowaczyk pitched two shutout innings with a pair of strikeouts. J’Shawn Unger tossed a scoreless frame while allowing an unearned run, before Pryce Bender pitched a scoreless seventh frame.

Rhett Stokes led the Red squad with a 2-for-3 day and a double. Case Sanderson drove in a team-high two RBI, while Cayden Brumbaugh, Riley Silva, Robby Bolin and Devin Nunez tallied a hit.

Hayden Lewis and Matt Evans picked up the two hits for the White offense on Wednesday afternoon.

Consecutive RBI groundouts from Bolin and Sanderson in the bottom of the first had the Red team out to an early 2-0 lead in the opening frame.

The Red team had its lead grow to three in the third after Sanderson lifted a sacrifice fly to deep left field, plating Silva.

Stokes reached on a fielding error in the bottom of the sixth, before advancing to second on a second error in the inning. The senior stole third and later advanced home on a passed ball to make it a 4-0 game.

Frahm dealt a scoreless seventh inning to preserve the 4-0 win in the scrimmage for the Red team.
