There's no place like home for South East, who bounced back after a loss on the road on Thursday. They never let the Roosevelt Rough Riders get on the board and left with a 3-0 victory on Monday. This was payback for the Jaguars, who suffered a 9-3 defeat the last time these two teams met.

Jayden Cortez made a big impact while hitting and pitching. He looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run and allowing only two hits over seven innings pitched. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than two hits in three consecutive appearances. He was also big at the plate, earning one run and two stolen bases.

Cortez wasn't the only one making solid contact as six players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Anthony Santos, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with one stolen base and one run. That's the most hits Santos has posted since back in March. Another was Nathan Munoz, who went 1-for-3 with one triple and one RBI.

South East is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four games. That's provided a massive bump to their 9-15 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.3 runs on average over those games. As for Roosevelt, they are on a five-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 8-15.

Coming up, Roosevelt will face off against Woodrow Wilson at 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday. South East will be paying especially close attention to the Rough Riders' matchup: after the Rough Riders face off against the Bruins, they'll take on South East again at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday.
