Chittenango came tearing into Tuesday's matchup with three straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 4.7 runs), and they left with even more momentum. Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Mexico Tigers a 4-0 shutout. The Bears were shut out 4-0 the last time they took on the Tigers, so the Bears were just returning the favor.
Not much got past Alex Pappas, who gave up just three hits to keep Mexico off the board. Pappas has been consistent: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in five consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Elijah Lefort, who went 1-for-2 with one stolen base, two RBI, and one run. He is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now snagged at least one in each of the last three games he's played.
Chittenango's victory was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 9-6. The home wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 7.5 runs over those games. As for Mexico, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 7-7.
Chittenango will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Tigers: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday.
