WASHINGTON CH — In a tightly contested battle, Washington defeated Blanchester 5-1 Wednesday in non-league baseball at Washington Senior High School.
The Wildcats, 18-5 on the year, collected just two hits — one each by Sammy Roush and Caleb Sears.
“The bats were non-existent today,” Blanchester manager Aaron Lawson said. “We managed to get some guys in scoring position a few times, but never got the two-out hit we were looking for.”
Washington was a state semifinalist last season.
