Nico Pilara Game Report: @ Hercules

Nico Pilara posted a new career-high in runs on Tuesday. He scored two runs while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances, good enough for us to rate the performance as the best he's had all season long. Those runs were his first of the season.

Coming up, Pilara and Saint Mary will challenge Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday. Saint Mary's will be headed into this one with a sizable disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 694 places lower in California), but they're not letting that get them down. Will they be able to pull off an upset behind Pilara? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more baseball content.
