Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Simon Kenton). They were the clear victors by a 22-5 margin over the Anderson Raptors on Thursday. With that victory, the Pioneers brought their scoring average up to 6.2 runs per game.
Tyler Ruete was a standout: he got on base in four of his five plate appearances with one home run, five RBI, and two runs. Those five RBI gave him a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Logan Judd, who went 2-for-4 with five runs, two stolen bases, and one triple.
Simon Kenton kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 18 hits. That's a new trend for them: they were averaging 5.1 hits per game earlier this season, but in their last 15 contests they've averaged 15.
