Mahomet-Seymour’s pitching was very good.

But the pitchers for Teutopolis were just a little bit better.

Derek Konkel and Dylan Pruemer combined to throw a two-hit shutout and the Shoes managed to push across a run in the sixth inning to post a 1-0 victory at home Monday afternoon.

With one out in the bottom of the sixth, Konkel, Max Niebrugge and Pruemer drew back-to-back-to-back walks to load the bases. Mitch Althoff’s ground ball then drove home Konkel with what proved to be the winning run.

The Bulldogs tried to tie or take the lead in the top of the seventh. A single and two walks loaded the bases with one out, but Pruemer struck out the final two batters to preserve the shutout and the win.

Konkel went the first four innings, allowing one hit and a walk, while striking out eight. Pruemer relieved in the fifth and pitched the final three innings. He also gave up a hit and three walks, but struck out six to gain the victory.

The Shoes were also limited to two hits in the contest. Logan Roepke had a two-out single in the second and Caleb Siemer had a one-out base hit in the fourth.

T-Town improved to 2-1 on the young season. The Shoes will be back in action today (Tuesday) with a game at Breese Mater Dei.
