Western Heights waltzed into their matchup on Monday with four straight wins... but they left with five. They blew past the Marshall Bears 15-0. The result was nothing new for the Jets, who have now won nine contests by six runs or more so far this season.
Jacob Bohnstedt was a major factor while hitting and pitching. He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out eight batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). He has been consistent for a while: he hasn't given up more than two walks in 11 consecutive appearances. He was also big at the plate, going a perfect 2-for-2 with two runs, one double, and one RBI. Western Heights is 5-1 when Bohnstedt posts two or more runs, but 9-10 otherwise.
In other batting news, Caden Wiebusch was excellent, getting on base in all three of his plate appearances with three runs and one stolen base. He has become a key player for Western Heights: the team is 5-1 when he posts at least two runs, but 9-10 otherwise. Akin Aguillard was another key player, getting on base in two of his three plate appearances with three runs.
Western Heights hit smart and finished the game with only two strikeouts. The team has now struck out at least five batters in three consecutive games.
Western Heights pushed their record up to 14-11 with the win, which was their sixth straight at home. Those home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.2 runs on average over those games. As for Marshall, they are on a 39-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-20.
Western Heights didn't take long to hit the field again: they've already played their next match, a 22-0 win against Classen SAS on the 22nd. As for Marshall, they will head out to face off against Capitol Hill at 3:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Redwolves have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 10.59 runs per game on average), something the Bears will no doubt try to take advantage of.
