Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Union). They never let the J.Z. George Jaguars get on the board and left with a 23-0 win on Tuesday. The high-flying hitting performance was a huge turnaround for the Yellowjackets considering their one-run performance the contest before.
Kooper Fultz and Jacob Freeman made a big impact no matter where they played. Throwing, Fultz tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. Meanwhile, Freeman pitched one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits. Furthermore, Fultz didn't allow a single walk, the first time he has blanked an opponent since back in April of 2024. At bat, Fultz went a perfect 3-for-3 with five RBI and one run, while Freeman scored a run while going 2-for-3. That's the most hits Fultz has posted since back in April of 2024.
In other batting news, Union got a massive performance out of Austin Lee, who scored three runs while going 2-for-3. What's more, Lee posted three RBI, the most he's had since back in April of 2024. Another player making a difference was Rafe Manning, who scored a run while going 1-for-2.
Union always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .697. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
Union is on a roll lately: they've won seven of their last nine matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 8-4 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.1 runs over those games. J.Z. George is on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 0-8-2.
Union will have a chance to go back-to-back against J.Z. George: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
