On the mound, the Chucks used three pitchers with Johnston, Huey and Daren Byers. Huey threw the middle three innings to get the win, allowing five hits, one run and two walks while striking out three.
Brady Caylor and Seth Dunkle each had two hits for the Raiders, who loaded the bases in three of the first four innings but scored one run. Dunkle had both runs batted in.
Lyle took the loss, giving up five hits and six runs in 1 2/3 innings.
