Cypress Creek's batters probably weren't too happy with Jesus Cabarcas, who pitched a no hitter (he gave up four walks). Cabarcas also allowed no hits, which is notable because Celebration is 2-1 when he allows at most one hit, but 8-9 otherwise.
At the plate, David Sevilla was excellent, scoring two runs and stealing a base while going 3-for-4. Celebration is undefeated when Sevilla posts two or more runs, but 5-10 otherwise. Another player making a difference was Keiner Quintero, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 1-for-2.
Celebration hit smart and finished the game with only one strikeout. The team has now struck out at least five batters in four consecutive matches.
Meanwhile, there's no place like home for Davenport, who bounced back after a loss on the road on Wednesday. They put the hurt on Tenoroc with a sharp 13-2 win on Thursday. The Broncos haven't had any issues with the Titans recently, as the game was their fifth consecutive victory against them.
The team relied heavily on Brylandd Canode, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 1-for-2. The team also got some help courtesy of Luis Escalera, who scored two runs and stole two bases.
Davenport pushed their record up to 8-17 with the win, which was their third straight at home. Those home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.0 runs on average over those games. As for Celebration, the win got them back to even at 10-10.
Celebration came out on top in a nail-biter against Davenport when the teams last played back in February, sneaking past 5-4. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Storm since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
