Grant Ebbert had at least one RBI in each of his first five at bats on Monday evening, leading Tonganoxie Post 41 to a 14-6 win over the Leavenworth Knights in game one of their doubleheader and a 5-3 lead after two innings in game two.

The Knights came roaring back in the third inning of game two, however, scoring 10 runs in the inning which provided the difference in an 18-8 victory. That ended Tonganoxie’s winning streak, which had been extended to 11 games after they had beaten the Lansing Reds by scores of 9-8 and 10-0 in Tonganoxie on Saturday and had beaten the Knights in game one on Monday.
