Auburn Seniors Baseball on Five-Game Winning Streak as Strong Pitching, Hitting Come Together

This toss to first baseman DJ Shallenberger was in time to force out the opposing hitter. Auburn pitcher Grant Cole moved toward the bag in case of an errant throw.
The Auburn Armstrong Cabinets Seniors baseball team raised its winning streak to five games and its record to 12-12 with recent victories over Adams, Nebraska City, Doniphan County, Kansas, and Nehawka.
Game with Adams.

The locals beat visiting Adams 14-4 on July 1 in a five-inning game. Jimmie Bunting pitched the first two-thirds inning for Auburn before being relieved by Grant Cole, who finished the game.

Auburn Armstrong Cabinets Senior Jimmie Bunting worked hard on the mound during a recent home game. Bunting also plays outfield for Coach Pat Engles' team which has evened its record at 12-12.
Both teams' lead-off batters hit home runs. Adams' Ryan Busboom homered, Jordan Pella reached on an error, Jake Wirtele and Dillon Wallman doubled and Jake Saathoff walked before Coach Pat Engles changed pitchers. All but Wirtele scored, as he was thrown out trying to stretch his double into a triple. Will Wirtele reached on an error and Eric Rapp drew a base on balls before Auburn got the crucial third out and found itself trailing 4-0.
But not to be outdone, Austin Emshoff...
