They were the clear victors by a 17-1 margin over the Newton Eagles. The result was nothing new for the Red Devils, who have now won ten matchups by seven runs or more so far this season.
Caden Carney was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he struck out seven batters over 2.2 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 April of 2024. He was also solid in the batter's box, scoring two runs while going 1-for-2.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Kullen Fountain, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with two runs, one triple, and two RBI. Another player making a difference was Alex McGilvra, who scored three runs and stole a base while going 2-for-4.
Huntington always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .579. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Newton only posted an OBP of .300.
Huntington's win was their 11th straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 16-2. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.8 runs over those games. As for Newton, they are on a five-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 2-13.
Looking ahead, Huntington will be playing in front of their home fans against Pollok Central at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Pollok Central has struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 7.33 runs per game on average), something Huntington will no doubt try to take advantage of. We've got a battle between Eagles coming up.
