Atchison strolled into their game on Monday with an undefeated record and they left with the same. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 4-2 victory over the Leavenworth PIONEERS. That result was just more of the same for these two, as the Phoenix also won the last time the pair played back in April of 2024.
Kolten Bonnel made a splash no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, tossing 6.1 innings while giving up just one earned run off four hits. Bonnel was also solid in the batter's box, going 2-for-3 with one run and one double.
Bonnel wasn't the only one making solid contact as three players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Brody Barnes, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with one home run, two runs, and two RBI. That home run was Barnes' first of the season.
Atchison's win was their 11th straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 9-0-2. Those home victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they've averaged 12.0 runs this season. As for Leavenworth, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost eight of their last ten contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 5-9 record this season.
