Centennial barely beat Legacy the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. Centennial's pitchers stepped up to hand Legacy a 10-0 shutout on Monday. The Bulldogs might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won six games by seven runs or more this season.

Kane Barber tossed a big game, not allowing a single earned run while striking out six over five innings pitched. What's more, he gave up only three hits, the fewest he's had over his last five matchups.

On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Noa Oyadomari, who got on base in all three of his plate appearances with three RBI and one double. That's the most RBI he has posted since back in April of 2024. Another player making a difference was Tyler Jackson, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 1-for-2.

Centennial always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .553. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Legacy only posted an OBP of .182.

Centennial pushed their record up to 11-5 with the victory, which was their fifth straight at home. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.2 runs on average over those games. As for Legacy, with the defeat, they broke their three-game winning streak and moved their record to 3-8.

Coming up, Centennial will head out on the road to square off against Shadow Ridge at 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday. As for Legacy, they will be playing in front of their home fans against Clark at 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Legacy's pitchers better be ready for this one: Clark has averaged an impressive 6.9 runs per game this season.
