Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Pembroke). They blew past the Red Creek Rams 18-5 on Thursday. The result was nothing new for the Dragons, who have now won 11 matchups by seven runs or more so far this season.
Austin Humphrey and Jayden Bridge were major factors no matter where they played. Throwing, Humphrey struck out seven batters over three innings while giving up just one earned run off two hits (and only one walk). Meanwhile, Bridge struck out eight batters over three innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off one hit. That's the most strikeouts Humphrey has posted since back in April. At bat, Humphrey went 2-for-4 with two runs, one triple, and one stolen base, while Bridge went 2-for-4 with two runs, two doubles, and one stolen base.
In other batting news, Landon Santini was incredible, getting on base in four of his five plate appearances with three stolen bases, four runs, and three RBI. That's the most runs he has posted since back in April. Trey Newton was another key player, going 2-for-4 with three RBI, one triple, and one run.
Pembroke kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 18 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least 13 hits in five consecutive contests.
Pembroke has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won eight of their last nine games. That's provided a nice bump to their 14-3 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.7 runs over those games. As for Red Creek, they are on a five-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-15.
As of now, neither Pembroke nor the Rams have any future games scheduled.
