Lansing Christian had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the six-run drubbing they dealt Perry on Thursday. The Pilgrims blew past the Ramblers 10-4. The Pilgrims might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won five matchups by six runs or more this season.

Collin Leavitt made a splash no matter where he played. On the mound, he didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits while striking out nine over six innings pitched. Leavitt was also big at the plate, getting on base in three of his five plate appearances with two stolen bases, three runs, and one double. That double marked the first that he has hit this season.

Those two doubles gave Marl a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Ethan Damesworth, who went 1-for-4 with two runs, one stolen base, and one RBI.

Lansing Christian kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Perry only managed three hits.

Lansing Christian has been performing well recently as they've won five of their last six contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 8-3 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.2 runs on average over those games. As for Perry, they are on a six-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-11.

The teams didn't have to wait long for a rematch: Lansing Christian beat the Ramblers by a score of 8-3 later that day.
