Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Thurston). They blew past the Ypsilanti Grizzlies 21-9 on Tuesday. The Eagles haven't had any issues with the Grizzlies recently, as the game was their sixth consecutive victory against them.
Thurston let Josiah Robinson and Desmond Ferguson run wild. Robinson got on base in four of his five plate appearances with four runs, two stolen bases, and one double, while Ferguson went 3-for-4 with three RBI and two runs. Ferguson is becoming a predictor of Thurston's success: when he posts at least three RBI the team is undefeated (and 4-10 when he doesn't). Traeshone Luke also deserves some recognition as he brought in his first RBI of the season.
Thurston always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .545. That was just more of the same: they've now posted an OBP of .545 or higher in three consecutive matches.
Thurston's win bumped their record up to 7-10. As for Ypsilanti, they are on an 18-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-18.
Looking ahead, Thurston will take on Redford Union at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday. As for Ypsilanti, they will head out on the road to square off against Huron at 4:30 p.m. on Friday.
