They didn't even let the Stuyvesant Peglegs on the board, marking their second-straight 10-0 shutout. Considering the Lions have won eight contests by more than five runs this season, Saturday's blowout was nothing new.

Richmond Hill's win was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 13-2-1. The home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 0.8 runs on average over those games.
