O'Fallon waltzed into their game on Friday with four straight wins... but they left with five. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 6-4 victory over the Freeburg Midgets. The Panthers have seen this before: they got the W the last time they saw the Midgets, too.
Connor Blue was a major factor no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out eight batters over five innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off two hits (and only one walk). Blue was also solid in the batter's box, going 1-for-3 with one home run and three RBI.
Blue wasn't the only one making solid contact as four players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Cole Becker, who scored a run while going 2-for-3.
