Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Ferris). They put the hurt on the Venus Bulldogs with a sharp 18-1 win on Tuesday. The Yellowjackets haven't had any issues with the Bulldogs recently, as the game was their fourth consecutive victory against them.
Alex Crenshaw made a big impact no matter where he played. On the mound, he struck out nine batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned run off five hits (and only one walk). He also tossed a walk, which is notable because Ferris is 3-1-1 when he allows at most one walk, but 4-7-2 otherwise. Crenshaw was also solid in the batter's box, scoring a run while going 2-for-4.
In other batting news, Angel Garcia was incredible, going 3-for-4 with one triple, one stolen base, and one run. Those three hits gave him a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Gavin Garcia, who scored three runs while getting on base in four of his five plate appearances.
Ferris was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .378. That's the best batting average they've posted all season.
Ferris' win bumped their record up to 7-8-3. As for Venus, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost five of their last six contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 9-11 record this season.
Both teams will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Ferris will challenge Alvarado at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Indians' pitching crew has only allowed 3.6 runs per game this season, so the Yellowjackets' hitters will have their work cut out for them. We've got a battle between Bulldogs coming up.
