Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Centralia). They never let the Carbondale Terriers get on the board and left with an 11-0 win on Tuesday. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest victory of the season.
The result came thanks to Archie Goewey's shutout, as he gave up just two hits. He also tossed no earned runs, which is notable because Centralia is 2-1 when he allows at most one earned run, but 2-3 otherwise.
