Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Brookwood). Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Berkmar Patriots a 20-0 shutout on Friday. Give some credit to the fans of both teams: the last four times they've met, the home team has come away the winner.
Cristian Mendez was a major factor no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out eight batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). What's more, he gave up only zero walks, the fewest he's had since back in March of 2024. He was also big at the plate, going a perfect 1-for-1 with one triple, two RBI, and one run.
In other batting news, Brookwood got a massive performance out of Boomer Rogozinski, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with one home run, four RBI, and one triple. Rogozinski is on a roll when it comes to RBI, as he's now brought in three or more in each of the last three games he's played. Blake Wright also deserves some recognition as he hit his first triple of the season.
Brookwood hit smart and finished the game with only one strikeout. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now struck out at most five strikeouts in six consecutive contests.
Brookwood has been performing well recently as they've won nine of their last 11 matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 11-7 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.5 runs on average over those games. Berkmar dropped their record down to 0-10 with the loss, which was their eighth straight on the road dating back to last season.
Brookwood will have a chance to go back-to-back against Berkmar: the pair will be back at it again later today.
