O'FALLON, MO. - The Alton River Dragons fell to the O’Fallon Hoots 12-10 in a high-scoring game Tuesday night, June 3, 2025, in O’Fallon, Missouri. The loss dropped Alton’s record to 2-5 early in the season.

Alton started strong, taking a 6-1 lead after an inning and a half. However, the Hoots responded with three runs in both the second and third innings to seize a 7-6 advantage heading into the fourth. The River Dragons tied the game at seven, but O’Fallon answered with three runs in the bottom of the fourth to pull ahead 10-7.
