Christian Flint spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered two runs (both of which were unearned) on two hits and racked up six Ks. Those six strikeouts set a new season-high mark for him.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Cody Johnson, who went 3-for-4 with three RBI, two runs, and two doubles. That's the most hits he has posted over his last 11 games. The team also got some help courtesy of Brock Litchfield, who went 3-for-4 with two stolen bases, three runs, and one RBI.
They weren't the only ones making solid contact: West Jordan kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least 11 hits in three consecutive contests.
West Jordan's win was their eighth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 19-3. Those road victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.8 runs on average over those games. As for Kearns, they are on a 21-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-20.
