They never let the Burke Bengals get on the board and left with a 7-0 win. Considering the Wildebeests have won four matchups by more than six runs this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.

As for Burke, their defeat dropped their record down to 4-7-1. Considering the last time they couldn't score was back in March, the team can't take the result too hard.

On Burke's side, they saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Max Gruber, who went 1-for-2 with one stolen base. Gruber is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now snagged at least one in each of the last six games he's played.
