After having lost a blowout in their previous game against Clifton Central, Peotone was happy to have turned things around on Friday. They walked away with a 6-2 win over the St. Anne Cardinals. The victory was some much needed relief for the Blue Devils as it spelled an end to their five-game losing streak.
Tyler Leitelt made a big impact while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he struck out eight batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). He also tossed no earned runs, which is notable because Peotone is 2-1 when he allows at most one earned run, but 0-6 otherwise. Leitelt was also solid in the batter's box, going 1-for-3 with one stolen base, one run, and one RBI. That RBI marked the first that he has brought in this season.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Kayden Derkacy, who went 2-for-3 with two RBI and one run. Declan McMaster was another key player, going 1-for-4 with one run, one double, and one RBI.
Peotone's win bumped their record up to 2-7. As for St. Anne, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 4-3.
Both teams will have to hit the road in their upcoming contests. Peotone will venture away from home to square off against Chicago Christian at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday. As for St. Anne, they will head out to take on Grant Park at 4:30 p.m. on Monday. The Dragons have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 13.17 runs per game on average), something the Cardinals will no doubt try to take advantage of.
