Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Oakridge). They blew past the Orchard View Cardinals 21-1 on Tuesday. The victory continues a trend for the Eagles in their matchups with the Cardinals: they've now won five in a row.
Evan Miller was a major factor no matter where he played. He struck out seven batters over four innings while giving up just one earned run off five hits (and only one walk). He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in four consecutive appearances. He was also solid in the batter's box, getting on base in four of his five plate appearances with four runs. Those four runs gave him a new career-high.
In other batting news, Chase Dutton was a standout: he got on base in three of his five plate appearances with two stolen bases, three runs, and three RBI. Those three runs gave him a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Michael Wambaugh, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with three RBI, two runs, and one triple.
Oakridge kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Orchard View only managed five hits.
Oakridge's win was their fifth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 10-5. Those road victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.8 runs on average over those games. As for Orchard View, they are on a seven-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-9.
Oakridge will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Cardinals: the pair will be back at it again later today.
