Lisbon extended their losing streak to six on Friday, dropping their season record down to 1-14 in the process. They lost 11-0 to the Groveton Eagles. Unfortunately, that's the third time they've come up short against the Eagles this season, with their most recent defeat being a 10-9 loss two weeks ago.
As for Groveton, they are on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five games. That's provided a massive bump to their 11-9 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.6 runs over those games.
For Groveton's part, Brocton Meunier was a major factor while hitting and pitching. He didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits while striking out six over six innings pitched. Meunier has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two hits in three consecutive appearances. He was also stellar in the batter's box, going 3-for-4 with one home run, two stolen bases, and three runs. Groveton is undefeated when Meunier posts two or more runs, but 7-9 otherwise.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Konner Shannon, who got on base in all four of his plate appearances with one home run, four stolen bases, and four runs. Those four stolen bases gave him a new career-high. Marcus Pellitier also deserves some recognition as he hit his first double of the season.
As of now, neither Lisbon nor Groveton have any future games scheduled.
