Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Oakmont walked away with it. They never let the Antelope Titans get on the board and left with a 12-0 victory on Wednesday. Considering the Vikings have won 13 contests by more than five runs this season, Wednesday's blowout was nothing new.
Jaylan Patterson tossed a big game, keeping things locked down with no earned runs or hits while striking out nine over 4.2 innings pitched. Those nine strikeouts gave him a new career-high.
On the hitting side, Cooper Kunis was incredible, going 2-for-3 with three RBI, one triple, and one run. That's the most RBI he has posted since back in April. The team also got some help courtesy of Zayne Ball, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with two runs, two RBI, and one double.
Oakmont was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .455. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .300 or higher in six consecutive matches.
Oakmont's win was their 12th straight at home, which pushed their record up to 24-5. The home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.4 runs on average over those games. As for Antelope, they have been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 13-14 record this season.
Oakmont will square off against Pioneer at 4:00 p.m. on Friday. Antelope does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
