Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Bishop Kelley). They put the hurt on the Memorial Chargers with a sharp 23-2 victory on Monday. With that win, the Comets brought their scoring average up to 7.3 runs per game.
The team relied heavily on Ethan Perkins, who scored three runs and stole three bases while getting on base in all three of his plate appearances. Those three runs gave him a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of William Ritzhaupt, who scored two runs and stole a base while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances.
Bishop Kelley always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .757. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
