With a playoff win on the line, Reed rose to the challenge on Wednesday. They never let the Douglas Tigers get on the board and left with a 10-0 victory. The high-flying hitting performance was a huge turnaround for the Raiders considering their one-run performance the match before.
Ryan Vanek was a major factor no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run while striking out ten over six innings pitched. He also tossed no earned runs, which is notable because Reed is 5-1 when he allows at most one earned run, but 10-15 otherwise. Vanek was also solid in the batter's box, going 2-for-3 with two RBI and one double.
