Luke Blackwell posted a new career-high in doubles on Tuesday. He scored two runs and stole a base while going 4-for-5. Considering he played a big game the last time he faced off against Lebanon back in May of 2024, the result shouldn't come as too huge a shock. Blackwell is becoming a predictor of Valmeyer's success: when he posts at least two runs the team is 4-1 (and 1-5 when he doesn't).

Looking ahead, Blackwell and Valmeyer will challenge Waterloo at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The Pirates will be headed into this one with a sizable disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 236 places lower in Illinois), but they're not letting that get them down. Will they be able to pull off an upset behind Blackwell? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other baseball content.
