STRATFORD – Carter Hanke and Hunter Seubert each had two RBIs to lift Marathon to an 8-5 win over Stratford in a Marawood Conference South Division baseball game Tuesday at the Tiger Stadium Baseball Field.

Marathon led 4-0 after three innings before Stratford got its offense going. However, the Tigers never could pull ahead as the Raiders (7-0, 3-0 Marawood South) scored twice in the fifth and sixth innings.

Eli Drexler had two of Stratford’s eight hits and scored twice, and Ryan Foley knocked in a pair of runs with a double for the Tigers (2-2, 1-1 Marawood South).
