Pablo Morales made the most of his time in the batter's box despite the final result and got on base in three of his five plate appearances with two stolen bases, two runs, and two RBI. Forest is 2-1 when Morales posts two or more runs, but 0-5 otherwise. Another player making a difference was Hayden Quigley, who got on base in all four of his plate appearances with two stolen bases and one run.
Forest has been struggling recently as they've lost five of their last six games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 2-6 record this season. Those losses can't be blamed on the team's hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 6.3 runs over those games. Raymond's first win this season bumped their record up to 1-10.
While Forest had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 4:30 p.m. on Friday.
