South Walton had already won ten in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 7.3 runs) and they went ahead and made it 11 on Wednesday. They put the hurt on the Mosley Dolphins with a sharp 10-0 win. Considering the Seahawks have won 14 games by more than five runs this season, Wednesday's blowout was nothing new.
Denton Lord tossed a big game, not allowing a single earned run and allowing only one hit while striking out 11 over five innings pitched. Those 11 strikeouts gave him a new career-high.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Frank Wells, who went 3-for-4 with one home run and three runs. That's the most hits he has posted since back in March. Cameron Tipton-Thomas also deserves some recognition as he hit his first triple of the season.
South Walton was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .407. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Mosley only posted a batting average of .056.
South Walton's victory was their fifth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 21-3. Those road wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.6 runs on average over those games. As for Mosley, their loss ended an eight-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 14-10.
Coincidentally, South Walton and Mosley will both be playing Crestview the next time they take the field. The Seahawks will head out to face the Bulldogs at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, while the Dolphins will host them at 6:30 p.m. on Friday.
