Peoria - Brant Hoveln and Colton Hale head to the dugout during the St. Joseph-Ogden baseball team's state semifinal game a Dozier Stadium. The Spartans plated three runs in the top of the ninth inning, breaking a 2-2 tie to beat Chicago Christian 5-2 and advance to the Class 2A champion game. Jesse Schlueter, Eli Place, and Austin Cain led the offensive effort with two hits each. Hale, who struck out eight of the 20 batters he faced across 6.2 innings, earned the win on the bump. Here's a look back at some of the game action from the game seven years ago this June.
