Western saw seven different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Edwin Moreno, who went 2-for-3 with two runs, one stolen base, and one double. Moreno is becoming a predictor of the Warriors' success: when he posts at least two runs the team is 6-1 (and 6-9 when he doesn't). Carlos Cota was another, going 1-for-3 with one stolen base, one double, and one RBI.
As for Clark, the victory (which was their third in a row) raised their record to 16-12. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.0 runs on average over those games.
On Clark's side, Kellen Anunson was incredible, going a perfect 4-for-4 with one home run, two runs, and one stolen base. What's more, Anunson posted two RBI, the most he's had since back in April. Nicholas Maffey also deserves some recognition as he hit his first triple of the season.
While Western had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 3:30 p.m. on Friday.
