A big first inning scoring burst keyed Medina to a 6-0 win over Alexander in a non league baseball game at Vets Park this afternoon.

The Mustangs scored all six of their runs in the opening frame on two-run singles by Branden Christiaansen and Brody Fry, an RBI single by Carter Woodworth and a fielders choice play. A lead off single by Aidan Papaj and two walks loaded the bases to set up the threat.

A trio of pitchers combined to hurl a one hitter for the Mustangs. Lucas Grimes pitched the first three innings allowing one hit and striking out three. Preston Woodworth hurled the next three innings fanning seven and Carter Woodworth pitched the final frame striking out three.

Now at 2-0, Medina is next scheduled to host LeRoy in a non league contest on Friday.
