Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Charles O. Dickerson walked away with it. They were the clear victors by an 11-3 margin over the Edison Spartans on Saturday. The result was nothing new for the Blue Raiders, who have now won 14 matchups by seven runs or more so far this season.
Nik Nelson made a splash no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out nine batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off three hits. That's the most strikeouts he has posted since back in April. He was also stellar in the batter's box, going 2-for-4 with three stolen bases, two runs, and one RBI. He is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now snagged at least one in each of the last nine games he's played.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Owen Fulton, who went 2-for-3 with two runs, one stolen base, and one double. Anthony Muro was another key player, going 2-for-4 with one stolen base, one run, and one RBI.
The victory (which was Charles O. Dickerson's tenth in a row) raised their record to 15-1. The team dominated over that stretch too, winning by an average of 10.6 runs. As for Edison, with the loss, they broke their four-game winning streak and moved their record to 11-9.
Looking ahead, Charles O. Dickerson is taking a road trip to challenge Tioga at 4:30 p.m. on Monday. The Tigers have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 6.75 runs per game on average), something the Blue Raiders will no doubt try to take advantage of. Edison does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
