It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Benton had no problem doing just that on Saturday. They were the clear victors by a 10-3 margin over the St. Amant Gators. The Tigers might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 18 matchups by six runs or more this season.
Cole Snell made a big impact while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he pitched six innings while giving up three earned runs off four hits. Snell was also big at the plate, going 1-for-3 with one stolen base and one run.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Kannon Greer, who went 1-for-3 with three RBI, one triple, and one run. That's the most RBI he has posted since back in March. Another player making a difference was Hayden Millen, who went 2-for-3 with two stolen bases and one run.
Benton is on a roll lately: they've won 21 of their last 24 contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 31-5-2 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.1 runs over those games. As for St. Amant, with the defeat, they broke their six-game winning streak and moved their record to 21-15.
Benton will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Gators: the pair will be back at it again later today.
