Immanuel had lost four straight on the road, but on Wednesday they dropped their record down to 14-6 to make it five. They fell just short of the Chavez Titans by a score of 6-4. The Eagles were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Titans apparently hadn't forgotten their defeat the last time these teams played back in April of 2019.
Immanuel saw five different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Colton Edwards, who went 2-for-3 with two RBI and one double. Another was Jax Davidson, who went 2-for-3 with one run and one RBI.
As for Chavez, the victory (which was their fifth in a row) raised their record to 14-4. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.0 runs on average over those games.
On Chavez's side, Jacob Sixtos was a major factor no matter where he played. On the mound, he struck out eight batters over seven innings while giving up three earned (and one unearned) runs off six hits. Those eight strikeouts gave Sixtos a new career-high. He was also stellar in the batter's box, going 1-for-3 with two stolen bases, three runs, and one triple.
In other batting news, Daniel Carrillo was excellent, going 1-for-3 with one stolen base, two RBI, and one double. Benji Perez was another key player, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with one stolen base, one run, and one double.
Looking ahead, Immanuel will challenge Sierra Pacific at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday. The Golden Bears' pitching crew has only allowed four runs per game this season, so the Eagles' hitters will have their work cut out for them. Chavez has already played their next contest (against McFarland), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing.
