Rylan McRae made a splash while hitting and pitching. He looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run and allowing only one hit over four innings pitched. What's more, he posted two strikeouts, the most he's had since back in February. He was also stellar in the batter's box, going a perfect 4-for-4 with one home run, seven RBI, and two runs. That home run marked the first that he has launched this season.
In other batting news, Kayden Henderson was a standout: he got on base in all four of his plate appearances with three runs, one stolen base, and two RBI. Another player making a difference was Jake Hale, who went 4-for-5 with one triple, one run, and one double.
Vinemont kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 17 hits. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Randolph County only managed three hits.
Vinemont has been performing well recently as they've won seven of their last nine matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 26-9 record this season.
