The
Lincoln Railer baseball team took a pair of wins Saturday over
Decatur Eisenhower and Decatur MacArthur.

 In the
first game, Lincoln ran to an easy 19-1 victory over Eisenhower.
Railer bats were led by Wes Neece, who went 3-4 with five RBIs, and Hayden
Cosby, who went 3-3, driving in three. Sophomore Joey Burge notched his
first varsity victory.
The
Railers' second game, against MacArthur, was much tighter, with the
outcome in doubt until Wes Neece launched a sacrifice fly in the
sixth inning to put the Railers up for good 5-4 and cap off a three-run
sixth inning. The Railers had only three hits in the second game, one each by Neece, Hayden Cosby and Will Fisher, but it was enough.
Jenkins was the winning pitcher, throwing 2 2/3 innings of scoreless
relief for his first varsity win.
