Baseball Recap: Monticello Takes a Loss

Monticello fell victim to Shiloh Christian and their airtight pitching crew on Saturday. They came up short against the Saints, falling 15-0. Having soared to a lofty 14 runs in the game before, the Billies' shutout was a dramatic turnaround.

Monticello has also traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 5-7 record this season. That patch can't be blamed on the team's hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 7.5 runs over those games. The win got Shiloh Christian back to even at 4-4.

Monticello has already played their next game, a 10-1 defeat against Lonoke on the 29th. Shiloh Christian has also already played their next matchup (against Russellville), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing.
