Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Fairview walked away with it. They were the clear victors by a 10-1 margin over the Wayne Trace Raiders on Thursday. Considering the Apaches have won 12 contests by more than five runs this season, Thursday's blowout was nothing new.

Elijah Arend and Anthony Singer made a big impact while hitting and pitching. On the mound, Arend didn't allow a single earned run over four innings pitched. Meanwhile, Singer tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits. Arend has been consistent: he hasn't given up more than two walks in eight consecutive appearances. At bat, Arend went 2-for-5 with two runs, two doubles, and one RBI, while Singer went 3-for-5 with one double and one RBI. That's the most hits Singer has posted since May 1st.

In other batting news, Fairview got a massive performance out of Zane Timbrook, who went 3-for-4 with four RBI, one run, and one double. Those four RBI gave Timbrook a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Cole Mack, who went 3-for-4 with two runs, two RBI, and one double.

Fairview kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 18 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least ten hits in three consecutive matchups.

Fairview has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won ten of their last 11 games. That's provided a nice bump to their 18-3 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.9 runs over those games. As for Wayne Trace, they are on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 17-11.

As of now, neither Fairview nor the Raiders have any future games scheduled.
