The Bellefontaine Chiefs 12U baseball team traveled to Sidney on Wednesday night to take on Sidney Bats Orange 12U in regular-season play.
The Chiefs struggled to generate momentum at the plate and ultimately fell by a score of 7–3.
Tovan Benton Jr. started on the mound for the Chiefs, allowing three hits and six runs during his time on the hill.
Offensively, the Chiefs saw contributions from multiple players, with Parker Artis, Tovan Benton Jr., Caleb Palmer, Sawyer Vermillion, Briar Barber, and Will Robb each collecting a hit.
The team now looks ahead to tournament play this weekend as they compete in the annual Chieftain Classic.
The Chiefs will open the tournament Friday night at 8:00 p.m., taking on the Benjamin Logan Raiders 12U at Blue Jacket Park.
