The Gainesville High baseball team didn’t take long to shake the sour taste from Saturday’s loss to Buford. Coming off a shutout in which they struck out 15 times, the Red Elephants rode a five-run second inning and a six-run fourth to a 12-2 five-inning victory against Clarke Central on Monday at Ivey-Watson Field in Gainesville. Gainesville improved to 9-2 overall and 4-0 in Region 8-AAAAA play ahead of Wednesday’s 5:55 p.m. game at Cedar Shoals in Athens.
