Arlington Post 139 rolled out to an early lead and never looked back Thursday, riding Sean Guffey’s four RBIs and a nine-hit attack to a 15-2 win over McLean Post 270.

Arlington opened the scoring in the first when Aidan McCracken doubled, Guffey singled in a run and Alex Goodell added a double of his own. The second inning turned into a big frame as Arlington kept the line moving; McCracken, Guffey, Jack Ingram, Henry Gerber and others all chipped in run-scoring plate appearances while the home team kept the pressure on with patience at the plate.

The lead kept growing in the third and fourth. Guffey drove in another run in the third, and Arlington stacked four more runs in the fourth on a sacrifice fly by Cooper Colucia, a walk that forced in a run, and a run-scoring walk by JD Rizzo. Arlington finished with 11 walks, seven stolen bases and no errors, with McCracken swiping three bags and Guffey, Rizzo, Ingram and Matthew Hilscher all adding steals.

Guffey finished 2-for-3 with four RBIs, while McCracken went 2-for-2 with four runs scored and two RBIs. Rizzo drove in three runs, Alex Goodell finished with a hit and an RBI, and Henry Gerber and Ingram also drove in runs. Arlington’s lineup spread the damage across the order, with Adam Barrington scoring twice and Kai Trentin and Hilscher each crossing once.

Cam Gonzalez set the tone on the mound for Arlington, striking out five over three scoreless innings while allowing two hits and two walks. Aidan Kaminski worked the fourth and earned the win, and Jack Ingram closed the final inning of work for Arlington. Harrison Bohannon took the loss after allowing 11 runs on eight hits in three innings.

McLean got its runs in the fourth and fifth. Aidan Ryan drew a bases-loaded walk in the fourth to bring in one run, and Nikhil Antil singled home Charlie Morgan in the fifth for the other. Antil, Jack Kolsky and Morgan each finished with a hit, while Colin Adams drew two walks for McLean. Arlington’s early burst and deeper lineup made the difference, and the 15-run output left little room for a comeback.
