Thorndale came tearing into Friday's contest with four straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 12.5 runs), and they left with even more momentum. They blew past Bartlett 8-1. That's the second time they've managed to beat them this season, as they also won 7-6 back in March.
Jaxson Eschberger spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered a run (which was unearned) on three hits and racked up seven Ks. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in six consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Brenson Beran was excellent, going 2-for-4 with one triple, two RBI, and one run. That triple marked the first that he hit this season. The team also got some help courtesy of Gunner Ferguson, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 1-for-3.
