The St. Joseph Flyers used their roster in a 24-3 win over the New Boston Tigers on Tuesday.

The Flyers had 12 hits as nine different players got hits.
Chase Walters, Trae Crabtree and J.C. Damron all went 2-4 with Walters and Crabtree both had doubles.
St. Joseph scored 10 runs in the first inning as Walters singled and Crabtree doubled to drive in runs.
