After losing to Lake Minneola the last time they met, Windermere decided to demonstrate that turnabout is fair play. The Wolverines put the hurt on the Hawks with a sharp 9-2 victory on Thursday. The result was nothing new for the Wolverines, who have now won eight matchups by six runs or more so far this season.

Xavier Roman spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered two runs (both of which were unearned) on six hits.

At the plate, Fraynder Albornez and Diego Borjas did most of the damage at the plate: Albornez went 2-for-3 with four RBI, while Borjas scored a run while going 2-for-4. Those four RBI gave Albornez a new career-high. Randy Ruiz was another key player, scoring a run and stealing a base while going 2-for-3.

The win (which was Windermere's fifth in a row) raised their record to 18-4. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.6 runs over those games. As for Lake Minneola, their defeat ended a three-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 14-6.

Looking ahead, Windermere will face off against The First Academy at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Wolverines' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Royals have averaged an impressive 9.2 runs per game this season. As for Lake Minneola, they will square off against East Ridge at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Knights have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 7.8 runs per game on average), something the Hawks will no doubt try to take advantage of.
