The Effingham Junior Legion baseball team posted a 10-2 win at South Central Monday night to improve its record to 14-6 on the season.

Pitchers Bryar Janssen, Cody Utz and Brett Koester scattered six hits and two runs over nine innings to gain the victory. Ryan Sandifer went 3-4 with two triples while Cory Osborn and Drew Gibson each had two hits and two RBI to pace the offense.

The night was also special because Brett Koester was able to see his first live action after recovering from ACL and Meniscus reconstruction surgery in March.

Effingham will play South Central at Evergreen Wednesday night before starting District Tournament play against Dieterich Thursday at 6 p.m. at Dieterich.
