HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Salthawk baseball hoped some home cooking would snap a three-game losing streak, but the Goddard Lions had other ideas.

Facing what may have been the strongest competition this season, Goddard made quick work of Hutch High in Game 1 and won 11-0 by run rule. Hutchinson stranded a couple of runners in each of the first two innings and couldn’t throw strikes as Goddard (8-2) held Hutchinson to only three hits in the first contest.

The nightcap was more competitive. Hutchinson got good relief pitching from Jackson Albert, but fell 12-6. Hutchinson has now dropped five straight dating back to the split with Derby last week.

Hutchinson hopes to regain its winning ways versus Goddard Eisenhower on the road Thursday afternoon.

First pitch will be at 4 p.m. The game will be audio streamed on hutchpost.com.
