Palmyra put another one in the bag on Wednesday to keep their perfect season alive. They came out on top in a nail-biter against the Gettysburg Warriors, sneaking past 4-2. That's the second time they've managed to beat them this season, as they also won 4-3 back in April.
Jonathan Strohecker spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered just two earned runs on six hits and racked up ten Ks. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than two walks in nine consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Alex Dorta and Aiden Willard did most of the damage at the plate: Dorta went 3-for-4 with one triple and one run, while Willard went 1-for-3 with one triple, two RBI, and one run. Those three hits gave Dorta a new career-high.
