Madison had already won four in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 15.3 runs) and they went ahead and made it five on Thursday. They put the hurt on the South Lake Cavaliers with a sharp 16-4 win. While the Eagles didn't have the best season last year (they finished 6-11), it's starting to look like those struggles are a thing of the past.
Landon Wargo was a major factor no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single hit while striking out ten over five innings pitched. Wargo was even better at the plate, going 2-for-3 with one home run, two stolen bases, and two runs. He has been hot recently, having posted at least one stolen base the last three times he's played.
In other batting news, Malachi Allen was a standout: he went 2-for-4 with one home run, three runs, and four RBI. That home run marked the first that he has launched this season. Shawn Dennis was another key player, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with one home run, two stolen bases, and two RBI.
Madison always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .639. That was just more of the same: they've now posted an OBP of .639 or higher in four consecutive games.
Madison pushed their record up to 5-2 with the victory, which was their third straight on the road. Admittedly, the team didn't face the toughest opposition across those games, namely South Lake, Lincoln, and Lincoln. As for the Cavaliers, they are on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-4.
