Colonie Central had already proven themselves in the regular season and they didn't miss a beat now that it's playoff time. Everything went their way against the Guilderland Flying Dutchmen on Saturday as they made off with a 7-0 win. The Wolfpack might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won nine contests by six runs or more this season.
Not much got past Tyler Bilka, who gave up just five hits to keep Guilderland off the board. Bilka has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two walks in five consecutive appearances.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Steven Thomas, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with two runs, one triple, and one RBI. That triple was his first of the season. The team also got some help courtesy of Jackson Mackenzie, who went 2-for-3 with two RBI and one run.
The victory (which was Colonie Central's seventh in a row) raised their record to 15-4. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.1 runs over those games. As for Guilderland, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost seven of their last eight matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 4-16 record this season.
