Cuba/Spoon River Valley had no answer to Cole Noreuil on Wednesday as he struck out 13 batters over six innings while giving up just two earned (and two unearned) runs off four hits (and only one walk). As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his fourth in a row with less than two walks allowed. This year, Noreuil has been strong no matter where he plays. On the mound, he has an ERA of .81 over 26 innings pitched. Meanwhile, at bat he has slashed 0.453/0.623/0.642 with 18 runs.
Noreuil and Delavan will head out on the road to challenge Mt. Pulaski at 4:30 p.m. on Friday.
