Gavin Walder turned in nothing short of a gem on Friday, striking out seven batters over 4.2 innings while giving up just two earned runs off three hits (and only one walk). As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his ninth in a row with two or fewer walks. This year, he has been strong no matter where he plays. On the mound, he has an ERA of 1.11 over 32.2 innings pitched. Meanwhile, at bat he has slashed 0.451/0.548/0.627 with 17 RBI.
Coming up, Walder and Peoria Christian will challenge Richwoods at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday. Sadly, Walder's big day wasn't enough to stop the loss, which snapped the Chargers' three-game streak of wins at home. With the streak broken, Walder and the Chargers surely have a bit of extra motivation heading into Saturday's match. Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other baseball content.
