Seguin had already won eight in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 8.8 runs) and they went ahead and made it nine on Friday. They put the hurt on the Lanier Voks with a sharp 18-0 win. Give the Matadors' pitching crew some credit: that's the team's third straight shutout.
Ethan Tipple and Jordan Herrera made a big impact while hitting and pitching. On the mound, Tipple tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits. Meanwhile, Herrera pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. At bat, Tipple scored a run and stole two bases while getting on base in three of his five plate appearances, while Herrera got on base in three of his four plate appearances with three RBI, one triple, and one stolen base.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Elliot Weaver, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with three stolen bases, two runs, and one triple. The team also got some help courtesy of Matthew Marek, who scored three runs and stole a base while going 2-for-2.
Seguin kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 18 hits. That's a new trend for them: they were averaging 3.8 hits per game earlier this season, but in their last 15 matches they've averaged 12.4.
Seguin's victory was their sixth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 12-5-1. Those road wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.0 runs over those games. As for Lanier, they are on an eight-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-10-1.
