The Christian County Colonels may be finding their groove. Getting a solid pitching performance from Preston Phan and a big game at the plate from Blake Boehman, the Colonels picked up their fourth straight win by running past Logan County 11-1 in six innings Tuesday night in Russellville.
The Colonels got on top early, scoring two runs in the top of the first inning. The big hit was an RBI single from Brylle Javier.
Logan County got one of the runs back on a double from Montgomery Milam in the bottom of the inning to make it 2-1. But, it was all Christian County from there.
The Colonels extended the lead to 5-1 in the top of the third inning. Blake Boehman drove in two of the runs with a two-out single. After a single run in the fourth, it was Boehman again in the fifth, this time with a two-run double that made it 8-1. Elijah Underhill followed that with an RBI single.
Christian County (7-6) then sealed the deal with a pair of runs in the top of the sixth, one on a fielder’s choice, the other on a ground out.
Blake Boehman finished the night 3-4 with a double, 5 RBIs, and a run scored. Brylle Javier ended up 2-2 with an RBI and three runs scored. Elijah Underhill was 1-3 with an RBI and a run scored.
