Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Bethel). They walked away with a 7-4 win over the Yelm Tornados on Tuesday. This was payback for the Bison, who suffered a 5-1 loss the last time these two teams met.
Bethel got a great performance from Warner Anderson as he struck out six batters over 4.1 innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off eight hits. Anderson also tossed two walks, which is notable because the Bison are 2-1 when he allows at most two walks, but 0-7 otherwise.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Keegan Peck, who scored a run and stole a base while getting on base in all four of his plate appearances. He also brought in an RBI, marking his first of the season. Carson Dietsche was another key player, scoring two runs and stealing a base while getting on base in two of his four plate appearances.
Bethel always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .548. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
