Fountain Inn came tearing into Monday's game with four straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 5 runs), and they left with even more momentum. They blew past the Emerald Vikings 15-3. The Fury might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won eight matchups by eight runs or more this season.
Fountain Inn got a great performance from Brayden Passmore as he struck out eight batters over five innings while giving up three earned runs off seven hits (and not a single walk). Passmore has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than one walk any time he's pitched this season.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Carter Kelly, who fired off two home runs, three runs, and four RBI while going 2-for-4. That's the most runs he has posted since back in March. The team also got some help courtesy of Mason Guion, who went 2-for-3 with one home run, three RBI, and one double.
Fountain Inn always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .595. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Emerald only posted an OBP of .286.
