Wes Stines was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he pitched one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits. He also tossed no walks, which is notable because North Port is 3-1 when he allows at most one walk, but 2-4 otherwise. Stines was also big at the plate, scoring a run while going 2-for-3.
Stines wasn't the only one making solid contact as four players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Parker Armstrong, who got on base in all three of his plate appearances with one RBI. That RBI marked the first that Armstrong brought in this season.
The victory made it two in a row for North Port and bumps their season record up to 5-5. They've had to fight for that success though, as they only beat their opponents by an average of 1.5 runs across that stretch. As for Charlotte, they have been struggling recently as they've lost four of their last five games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 6-5 record this season.
Both teams are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. North Port will welcome Parrish Community at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. As for Charlotte, they will host Naples at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
