The Teutopolis Wooden Shoes closed out their fall baseball season on a winning note Friday afternoon, using a big sixth inning to pull away and post a 10-2 win at home over Neoga.

The Shoes took the lead in the fifth and then banged out six hits and scored six runs in the sixth to earn their 15th win.

The game was tied 2-2 after four innings, but T-Town took the lead for good in the fifth. Sam Bushur and Evan Wermert singled and Kayden Althoff walked to load the bases with no out. Matt Deters then delivered a base hit to drive in a pair.

The Shoes then added plenty of insurance in the sixth. Brayden Gaddis got things started with a single and Derek Deters drove him home with a one-out triple. Bushur added an RBI double and Cade Buehnerkemper and Mitch Althoff both delivered run-scoring singles. The other two runs scored on an error and a wild pitch.

Teutopolis scored single tallies in the second and third to grab the early lead. Two walks and an error accounted for the second-inning run and Derek Deters blasted a solo home run leading off the third.

Neoga got on the scoreboard in the fourth. Luke Romack had a two-run double that tied the score at 2-2.

Buehnerkemper relieved in the third and pitched 2.2 innings of no-hit baseball to get the win. He also struck out three. Derek Konkel was the starter and went the first 3.1 innings and Evan Addis pitched the seventh.

The Shoes finished with 13 hits in the game. Bushur had three of those, while Wermert, Matt Deters and Derek Deters both had a pair. Matt Deters finished with three RBI.

Neoga dipped to 8-9 on the season. The Indians will play Effingham St. Anthony on Monday in an opening-round game of the National Trail Conference Tournament. That game will be played at Paul Smith Field.

T-Town finished its season with a 15-6 record.
