Ocean Lakes won against Kempsville on Tuesday with ten runs and they decided to stick to that run total again on Thursday. The Dolphins didn't even let the Norview Pilots on the board, marking the Dolphins' second-straight 10-0 shutout. The result was nothing new for the Dolphins, who have now won 12 matches by six runs or more so far this season.

Tre Hamilton made a splash while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he tossed one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than two hits in four consecutive appearances. He was also solid in the batter's box, going 1-for-2 with two runs and one RBI.

In other pitching news, Mitchell Beyers looked comfortable as he pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. What's more, he posted four strikeouts, the most he's had since back in March.

Back at the plate, Turner Kuhle was incredible, going 2-for-3 with one home run and two RBI. That home run marked the first that he has launched this season. The team also got some help courtesy of Connor Mais, who went 1-for-3 with two stolen bases, two runs, and one RBI.

Ocean Lakes always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .556. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Norview only posted an OBP of .067.

Ocean Lakes pushed their record up to 15-5 with the win, which was their fourth straight at home. Those home victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.0 runs over those games. As for Norview, they have been struggling recently as they've lost six of their last eight contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 9-11 record this season.

Ocean Lakes does not have any more games scheduled as of now. As for Norview, they will look to defend their home field on Friday against Manor at 4:30 p.m. The Mustangs have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 9.4 runs per game on average), something the Pilots will no doubt try to take advantage of.
