They never let the Gentry Rams get on the board and left with an 11-0 win. That result was just more of the same for these two, as the Wolves also won the last time the pair played back in April of 2024.

Those 13 strikeouts gave him a new career-high. He was also big at the plate, going 2-for-3 with one triple and one run.
