Providence had already proven themselves in the regular season and they didn't miss a beat now that it's playoff time. They blew past the Paoli Rams 7-0 on Monday. The Pioneers might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 11 matchups by seven runs or more this season.
Blake Straub was a major factor while hitting and pitching. He looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run and allowing only one hit while striking out 11 over seven innings pitched. Those 11 strikeouts gave him a new career-high. He was also big at the plate, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with one double and one RBI.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Cole Huett, who went 3-for-4 with one home run, three runs, and three RBI. That's the most RBI he has posted since back in April. Gavin Jackson was another key player, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with two runs, one stolen base, and one RBI.
Providence always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .529. That was just more of the same: they've now posted an OBP of .515 or higher in three consecutive contests.
Providence has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won eight of their last nine games. That's provided a nice bump to their 15-6 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.8 runs on average over those games. As for Paoli, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 10-10 record this season.
As of now, neither Providence nor Paoli have any future games scheduled.
