Wins by Sun Drop and First National Bank Monday helped each team forge into a tie for first place in the league standings.Sun Drop broke a tie in the fifth inning on a two-run single by Ethan Mikkola to win 5-3 over Rotary while First National Bank scored five funs in the sixth inning to beat Nursery Supply 7-5.Monday’s first game entered the bottom of the fifth tied 3-3, but Mikkola changed the score quickly. After Daniel McGee drew a one-out walk and Devon Terry reached on an error, Sun Drop had a golden opportunity to seize control of the game.Mikkola dug in at the plate and drilled a pitch from Jamey Jennings into the outfield, bringing McGee and Terry around in the process.It was be just the run support A.D. Majors needed as he went the distance on the mound to earn the win.
