While Washburn put up plenty of runs on Wednesday, the same can't be said for Austin-East. The Pirates were the clear victors by a 13-0 margin over the Roadrunners. The Pirates might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won eight contests by nine runs or more this season.

Riley Munsey made a big impact no matter where he played. On the mound, he pitched 1.2 innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in five consecutive appearances. He was also solid in the batter's box, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with two runs and two RBI.

In other batting news, Landry Coffey was excellent, going 2-for-3 with one stolen base, two RBI, and one run. Another player making a difference was Matthew Harville, who went 1-for-2 with two stolen bases, two runs, and one double.

Washburn always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .567. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Austin-East only posted an OBP of .316.

Washburn is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 14-8-1 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.3 runs on average over those games. As for Austin-East, they dropped their record down to 0-23 with the defeat, which was their 27th straight on the road dating back to last season.

As of now, neither Washburn nor the Roadrunners have any future games scheduled.
