Isaac Flamino spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered two runs (both of which were unearned) on seven hits and racked up 11 Ks. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts in seven consecutive appearances.

At the plate, Kokomo's victory was truly a team effort as four different players contributed at least one hit. One of them was Jonathon Frye, who went 1-for-3 with two RBI.

Meanwhile, Cascade made easy work of South Putnam on Friday and carried off an 11-1 win. The result was nothing new for the Cadets, who have now won eight games by eight runs or more so far this season.

Davis Hart looked comfortable as he pitched three innings while giving up no earned runs off four hits.

On the hitting side, Cascade got a massive performance out of Toby Savini, who went 1-for-3 with two runs, one stolen base, and two RBI. Cort Hubner was another key player, going 2-for-4 with four RBI and one run.

Cascade's victory was their 13th straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 17-3. Those home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.9 runs on average over those games. As for Kokomo, their record now sits at 16-9.

The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Saturday as neither team is afraid to steal. Kokomo has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 3.4 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like Cascade struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 2.8 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.
