Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Mulberry walked away with it. They won by a run and slipped past Eustis 3-2. The win was nothing new for Mulberry as they're now sitting on four straight.
Gavin Stedman spent all eight innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered only one earned (and one unearned) run on two hits and racked up 13 Ks. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in eight consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Mulberry secured the victory behind a pair of hitters. One of them was Nic Partridge, who went 1-for-3 with two stolen bases and one run. Dominick Gotauco was another, getting on base in two of his three plate appearances with one stolen base and one run.

Mulberry pushed their record up to 21-7 with the win, which was their fifth straight at home. Those home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.0 run on average over those games. As for Eustis, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost eight of their last nine matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 13-13 record this season.
