Emery extended their losing streak to four on Friday, dropping their season record down to 7-17 in the process. They were two runs away from ending the streak, but they lost a 5-3 heartbreaker at the hands of the Carbon Dinos. Unfortunately, that's the second time they've come up short against the Dinos this season, as they also lost their prior matchup 4-3 on Tuesday.
Beau Stilson was cooking despite his team's loss, going a perfect 1-for-1 with one triple, one run, and one RBI.
As for Carbon, they have been performing well recently as they've won four of their last five matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 10-13 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.2 runs on average over those games.
On Carbon's side, they got a great performance from Stockton Kennedy as he struck out seven batters over five innings while giving up just two earned (and one unearned) runs off three hits.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Kanon Childs, who went 2-for-3 with two doubles and two RBI. That's the most doubles he has posted since back in March. Logan Bennett was another key player, going 2-for-4 with one stolen base and one run.
