MPL All Star Game
The Mid-Plains League All-Stars rallied from a 2-0 first-inning deficit and went on to defeat a Puerto Rico summer collegeiate baseball team at Rathert Field Sunday night 11-6.
Aaron Marshall of Baldwin City, Jonathan Valenzuela-Reece of Rossville, and Cade Bunnell of Rossville all hit home runs for the Mid-Plains League squad. Their head coach for the game, Seth Wheeler of Junction City said he thought the performance of the team showed the talent in the league. I think it proves that we have a lot of good talent in our league. All of our arms were 86-88 with breaking balls, and then we had some guys who could really hit too.”
The Mid-Plains squad tied the game 2-2 in the bottom of the 1st inning and then just kept adding one or two runs each at-bat through the seventh inning, as they rolled to the victory. Every one on the team played in the contest, and they used six different pitchers.
The general manager for the Junction City Brigade, Cecil Aska estimated attendance totaled approximately 300 people. Corvias Military Living Military Appreciation Night was also a part of the activities, and they sponsored a post-game fireworks display put on by Bennett Fireworks of Junction City.
