Chuck Porter Sports Editor

PRYOR, OK — The Salina baseball team improved to 4-1 on the season with a 4-1 win at Class 2A's No. 8 team Ketchum in eight innings Tuesday.

The Wildcats took a 1-0 lead in the top of the first inning. The lead held until the bottom of the sixth, when the Warriors tied the game up. Salina got three runs in the top of the eighth and held Ketchum off to escape with the win.

Salina pitcher Jake Tolbert picked up his first win on the season in seven innings of action. Brent Soldier picked up the save.

Ranked third in Class 3A, the Wildcats will begin play at the Dickson Festival this weekend.
