Zair Koeiman drove in four runs and Larks starter Ian Bentley allowed just two earned runs over six innings Wednesday night as Hays picks up an 11-5 win over the Dodge City A’s in Dodge City.

The A’s took advantage of a pair of early errors by the Larks and led 4-2 after three but in the fifth inning Hays rallied to tie the game at four with a two-run single by Zair Koeiman.

The Larks blew the game open with a five run sixth sparked by Ty Detmer’s two-run double.

Zair Koeiman was two-for-four with four RBIs and Derek Birginske was three-for-four with three runs scored in the Larks win.

Bentley allowed five runs, two earned and struck out six in six innings in his first appearance this summer for his first win of the summer.

Hays has won six of their last seven games and they improved to 16-9 overall and 12-9 in the Jayhawk League.

Larks have Thursday and Friday off before beginning a two-game series in Liberal Saturday and Sunday.
