Derek Konkel and Dylan Pruemer allowed only one unearned run in two games, helping the Teutopolis Wooden Shoes post a pair of wins at home Friday night.
Konkel went 5.2 innings, allowing six hits and one unearned tally, as the Shoes posted a 9-1 win over Marshall in the opener of the three-game round robin.
After Pleasant Plains got by Marshall 8-7 in Game 2, Pruemer took the mound for the Shoes and blanked Pleasant Plains on just three hits in five innings. T-Town had plenty of offense, rolling to a 10-0 victory.
Evan Waldhoff pitched 1.1 innings of hitless baseball in relief of Konkel, who reached his pitch limit in the fifth. Combined, the three hurlers allowed nine hits, while walking just one and striking out 17 in 12 total innings of work.
In the first contest, the Shoes scored singled tallies in each of the first three innings, added four in the fourth and closed out their scoring with a two-run sixth.
In the fourth, Pruemer and Garrett Gaddis walked and Konkel was hit by a pitch to load the bases. With two outs, Sam Busher delivered a two-run double and Cade Buehnerkemper followed with a base hit that drove in two more.
In the nightcap, it was a five-run second that put the Shoes in control. After Buehnerkemper had an RBI single in the opening inning, Konkel start the second by reaching base after strike three got away from the Pleasant Plains catcher. T-Town proceeded to score five times on just two hits.
Max Niebrugge had a single and Bushur reached on an error to load the bases. Buehnerkemper, Pruemer and Caleb Siemer each drew bases-loaded walks to force in three of the runs and Kayden Althoff had a two-run single.
THS added three runs in the third, one scoring on a Mitch Althoff RBI single, and closed the gap with a single tally in the fifth thanks to three walks and an error.
The Shoes improved to 14-7 on the season. They will play at home again Monday against Effingham. Game time is 4:30 p.m.
