Jacksonville Cruises To Victory Against Taylorville Monday Evening In Six

Jacksonville put up 3 runs in the first inning, and that was all they needed as they picked up an 11-1 baseball win in Taylorville on Monday night. Joe Reif, of the Crimsons, went 3-3 with 3 base hits and a couple walks in the win. AJ Charpentier also had several base hits and picked up the win, while giving up no hits, striking out one while walking two and hitting one batter.

 

The Tornadoes finally broke into the hit column when Max Grieme and Fallon Turner got back-to-back base hits off Nolan Peters who came in to relieve Charpentier in the 4th. The Tornadoes would break into the run column but the Crimsons would add a run again in the 6th and Taylorville would go down in order in the 6th with 3 fly outs to end the game 11-1 in 6 innings.
