University Lab never got on the board in their matchup on Saturday, but that sure wasn't the case in their game against North Vermilion on Saturday. They blew past the North Vermilion Patriots 12-1. Considering the Cubs have won four matchups by more than five runs this season, Saturday's blowout was nothing new.
Nicholus Zeringue looked comfortable as he tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than one walk any time he's pitched this season.
On the hitting side, Jake McCann and Lane Mixon did most of the damage at the plate: McCann scored three runs and stole three bases while going 3-for-4, while Mixon scored two runs while going 2-for-3. The dominant performance gave McCann a new career-high in runs. Another player making a difference was Jaris Hamilton, who scored two runs while going 2-for-4.
University Lab always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .531. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
University Lab has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won seven of their last eight contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 8-3 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 7.0 runs over those games. North Vermilion's defeat ended a four-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 8-4.
University Lab will have a chance to go back-to-back against North Vermilion: the pair will be back at it again later today.
