It's hard to turn regular season success into postseason wins, a fact Pleasant can now relate to. They wound up with the same score they had in their last game (2-1), but sadly the team found themselves on the wrong side of the score this time.
For Heath's part, Riley Baum spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered only one earned run on four hits and racked up ten Ks. Baum has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than two walks in five consecutive pitching appearances.
On the hitting side, Heath's victory was truly a team effort as two different players contributed at least one hit. One of them was Jaiden Dansby, who went 1-for-2 with a triple and an RBI.
Pleasant has been struggling recently as they've lost six of their last eight contests, which put a noticeable dent in their 8-14 record this season. As for Heath, the win (which was their ninth in a row) raised their record to 23-2.
As of now, neither Pleasant nor Heath have any future games scheduled.
