Baseball Recap: Beth Tfiloh's Luck Takes a Turn for the Worse on Friday

Beth Tfiloh dropped their record down to 6-5 on Friday, which also ended the team's four-game streak of wins. They took a 4-1 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Park School Bruins. The result was an unpleasant reminder to the Warriors of the 4-3 defeat they experienced in the pair's previous head-to-head fixture back in April of 2024.

Oscar Wright put in work while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he pitched 2.1 innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. That's the first time he hasn't allowed a single hit since back in March. He was also big at the plate, going 1-for-3 with one triple and one run. That triple marked the first that he has hit this season.

Wright wasn't the only one making solid contact as three players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Zachary Rogers, who went 1-for-3 with one double and one RBI.

As for Park School, they have been performing incredibly well recently as they've won six of their last seven matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 9-2 record this season. The victory was familiar territory for they, who have now won four games in a row.

On Park School's side, Jack Rogers spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered only one earned run on five hits and racked up ten Ks. Rogers has been consistent recently: he hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in four consecutive appearances.

On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Owen Cyr, who went 1-for-5 with one home run and two RBI. The team also got some help courtesy of Seth Katz, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with one stolen base and one RBI.

Looking ahead, Beth Tfiloh will look to defend their home field on Monday against Chapelgate Christian Academy at 4:00 p.m. The Yellowjackets have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed eight runs per game on average), something the Warriors will no doubt try to take advantage of. As for Park School, they will venture away from home to face off against Key at 4:15 p.m. on Wednesday. The Bruins' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Obezags have averaged an impressive 7.4 runs per game this season.
