Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Westside). Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Southside Tigers a 17-0 shutout on Wednesday. With that win, the Rams brought their scoring average up to 6.6 runs per game.
Jace Haynes looked comfortable as he struck out seven batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). Those seven strikeouts gave him a new career-high.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Jacob Holmes, who went 2-for-3 with one home run, four RBI, and two runs. That's the most RBI he has posted since back in March. Another player making a difference was Landon Geddings, who went 2-for-3 with two runs, one triple, and one stolen base.
Westside always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .625. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
Westside is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven games. That's provided a nice bump to their 12-6 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.7 runs on average over those games. As for Southside, they are on a 33-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-16.
The teams didn't have to wait long for a rematch: Westside beat the Tigers by a score of 15-0 later that day.
