Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Adrian). They put the hurt on the Ypsilanti Grizzlies with a sharp 22-0 victory on Wednesday. The team's explosion at the plate also rewarded the Maples with their most commanding win of the season.
Julius Robichaud made a big impact while hitting and pitching. He struck out eight batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). He has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in three consecutive appearances. He was also stellar in the batter's box, going a perfect 3-for-3 with two runs, two RBI, and one double. That's the most RBI he has posted since back in May of 2024.
In other batting news, Adrian got a massive performance out of Maddox Betz, who went 2-for-4 with four RBI, two runs, and two doubles. Those four RBI gave Betz a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Joelden Griffin, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with two stolen bases, two runs, and two RBI.
Adrian was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .615. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .308 or higher in seven consecutive games.
Adrian pushed their record up to 7-3 with the win, which was their third straight on the road. Those road victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 0.7 runs on average over those games. As for Ypsilanti, they are on a seven-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-7.
Adrian will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Grizzlies: the pair will be back at it again later today.
