Ruben Luna was cooking despite his team's loss, getting on base in all three of his plate appearances with three stolen bases and one run. He is becoming a predictor of Overland's success: when he posts at least two stolen bases the team is 4-2 (and 3-10 when he doesn't). Dante Villanueva also deserves some recognition as he hit his first triple of the season.
Meanwhile, Skyview was not the first on the board on Monday, but they got there more often. Everything went their way against Aurora Central as they made off with a 13-3 win. The Wolverines might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won nine matchups by six runs or more this season.
