Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Advance). They blew past the Richland Rebels 16-1 on Monday. The Hornets might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won six matchups by six runs or more this season.
Kadon Rodgers and Jameson Hamlin made a splash while hitting and pitching. On the mound, Rodgers tossed one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits. Meanwhile, Hamlin tossed 1.2 innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. He is becoming a predictor of Advance's success: when he allows at most one hit the team is 2-1 (and 6-8 when he doesn't). At the plate, Rodgers got on base in all three of his plate appearances with two runs and two RBI, while Hamlin got on base in both of his plate appearances with two runs and one stolen base. Those two RBI gave Rodgers a new career-high.
In other batting news, Advance got a massive performance out of Lelind Kennedy, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with one triple, one stolen base, and two RBI. Those two hits gave Kennedy a new career-high. Cole Curtis was another key player, going a perfect 1-for-1 with two runs, one stolen base, and two RBI.
