Derby won the last time they faced Wilby and things went their way on Wednesday too. The Red Raiders blew past the Wildcats 7-1. The Red Raiders might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won seven games by six runs or more this season.
Nikolas Kotucek looked comfortable as he struck out six batters over 2.1 innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit (and only one walk). Derby is 4-1 when Kotucek allows one or fewer earned runs, but 3-12 otherwise.
On the hitting side, Jose Frias was incredible, going 2-for-3 with two runs, one triple, and two RBI. That's the most RBI he has posted since back in April. The team also got some help courtesy of Michael Slack, who went 1-for-2 with two stolen bases and two runs.
The win made it two in a row for Derby and bumps their season record up to 7-13. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered a grand total of 2 run in those games. As for Wilby, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 3-11.
Looking ahead, Derby will venture away from home to take on North Branford at 3:30 p.m. on Monday. Wilby does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
