Sparta was led to victory by James Pillers, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Wednesday. Pillers turned in nothing short of a gem: he didn't allow a single earned run while striking out eight over 8.2 innings pitched. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two walks in three consecutive pitching appearances.
Pillers and Sparta will head out on the road to take on Okawville at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday. Pillers has dominated as far as walks are concerned (he's averaged 0.3 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Okawville has only allowed 5.2 per game this season.
