Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Rock Falls). Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Prophetstown Prophets a 15-0 shutout on Monday. The team's explosion at the plate also rewarded the Rockets with their most commanding win of the season.
Ethan Mathews made a splash while hitting and pitching. He looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run and allowed only one hit over four innings pitched. Mathews was also big at the plate, scoring three runs while getting on base in all three of his plate appearances.
In other batting news, Austin Castaneda was incredible, scoring four runs and stealing a base while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances. That stolen base was his first of the season. Another player making a difference was Mason Landes, who went 2-for-3 with four RBI.
Rock Falls always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .576. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
The win got Rock Falls back to even at 3-3-1.
Looking ahead, Rock Falls will challenge Newman Central Catholic at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Newman Central Catholic will roll in looking for their sixth straight victory, something Rock Falls surely won't give up without a fight. Prophetstown does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
