Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Edgar). They never let the Assumption Royals get on the board and left with a 14-0 win on Monday. Considering the Wildcats have won five games by more than five runs this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.
Jase Apfelbeck was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits over four innings pitched. He also tossed no earned runs, which is notable because Edgar is undefeated when he allows at most two earned runs, but 1-2 otherwise. Apfelbeck was also stellar in the batter's box, going 1-for-2 with one home run, three runs, and four RBI. Those four RBI gave him a new career-high.
