A day after an 11-1 home loss to Shelbyville Central, Warren County baseball once again ran into problems Wednesday evening. Taking on the Eagles in Shelbyville this time around, the Pioneers were held scoreless on the way to a 15-0 loss.

The game came to a close after 4.5 innings, due in part to an 11-run bottom of the fourth inning that helped Shelbyville ultimately seal the win.

Warren County was held to three hits, with one each for Tyler Adams, Ryder Gilispie and Woogs Bryan.

Lealon Arnold pitched the first three innings and finished with seven hits, four runs and one walk. Gilispie got it started in the bottom of the fourth inning, adding one hit, four runs and two walks before getting pulled. Up next was Hayven Jones, who had one strikeout, three runs and two walks before coming off. Jaytton Baker followed and surrendered three hits, four runs and one walk during his time on the mound. Warren County continued with Brady Swallows, who gave up one hit and an additional two walks. Keaton Rowe was next up, striking out one to bring the bottom of the fourth to a close.
