VANDALIA – Battling one of the better Sr. Legion teams in the region, Post 95 coach Mark Lewis knew that his team would need to limit its mistakes and take advantage of every opportunity it had.

For the first two innings on Tuesday, that went pretty well, but over the last seven, it was Shelby County that took over the game.

Vandalia slugged a pair of home runs early in the game, but its pitchers allowed 17 batters to reach base via a walk or hit by pitch to help Shelby County to a 19-6 nine-inning victory at Vandalia Mutual Field.
