While Trent VanHoutan delivered a dominant effort on Monday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Oskaloosa. Mission Valley had no answer to VanHoutan as he struck out nine batters over 6.1 innings while giving up just two earned (and three unearned) runs off six hits.
Even though VanHoutan couldn't lead Oskaloosa over Mission Valley, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 6:30 p.m. on Monday. Sadly, VanHoutan's big day wasn't enough to stop the loss, which snapped Oskaloosa's 12-game streak of wins at home. With the streak broken, VanHoutan and Oskaloosa surely have a bit of extra motivation heading into Monday's match. Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other baseball content.
