Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask South Florence). They put the hurt on the Darlington Falcons with a sharp 19-4 victory on Thursday. The result was nothing new for the Bruins, who have now won five contests by nine runs or more so far this season.
Kellin Croshaw looked comfortable as he tossed 1.2 innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. Furthermore, he didn't allow a single earned run, the first time he has blanked an opponent since March 4th.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Jhordyn Johnson, who went 2-for-3 with one home run, five RBI, and three runs. That's the most hits he has posted since March 1st. The team also got some help courtesy of Khalon McGee, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 2-for-2.
South Florence always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .605. They are a perfect 5-0 when they post an OBP of .513 or better.
The win made it two in a row for South Florence and bumps their season record up to 8-4. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.5 runs over those games. As for Darlington, they are on a five-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-7.
Both teams are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. South Florence will welcome East Clarendon at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. South Florence will need to watch out since East Clarendon has now posted at least ten runs in their last three matchups. As for Darlington, they will look to defend their home field on Friday against Lower Richland at 5:30 p.m. Lower Richland has struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 9.63 runs per game on average), something Darlington will no doubt try to take advantage of.
