Chillicothe Mudcats outfielder John Spoto’s good speed allows him to beat the throw to the Jefferson City Renegades catcher from the left fielder and score the team’s second run of the game on Peyton Becker’s third-inning single in the Mudcats’ eventual 5-4 victory on “Chuck” Haney Field at “June” Shaffer Memorial Park stadium a week ago today. Spoto, from Joliet, Ill., and that state’s Rock Valley College, reached base in all four plate appearances, including a single and two walks, and also scored what proved to be the decisive run the next inning on another Becker hit.
