Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Patriot). Their pitchers stepped up to hand the Rubidoux Falcons a 14-0 shutout on Tuesday. The Warriors haven't had any issues with the Falcons recently, as the game was their fourth consecutive victory against them.
The team relied heavily on Dustin Thayer, who went 3-for-4 with one home run, three runs, and one triple. That's the most runs he has posted since back in March of 2024. Another player making a difference was Noah Leon, who scored two runs while getting on base in all four of his plate appearances.
Patriot hit smart and finished the game with only two strikeouts. They are 4-1 when they post two or more strikeouts.
The win got Patriot back to even at 5-5. As for Rubidoux, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 2-7.
Both teams will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Patriot will take on La Sierra at 3:15 p.m. on Thursday. La Sierra has struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 7.57 runs per game on average), something Patriot will no doubt try to take advantage of. As for Rubidoux, they will challenge Norte Vista at 3:15 p.m. on Thursday. Rubidoux has given up an average of 10.4 runs per game this season, so hopefully the team got some pitching drills in this week.
