Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask More). Their pitchers stepped up to hand the MacDonald Condor a 16-0 shutout on Wednesday. The win was familiar territory for the Knights, who have now won three contests in a row.
The team relied heavily on Zep Cortese, who got on base in all four of his plate appearances with one home run, four stolen bases, and three runs. He has become a key player for More: the team is 4-1 when he posts at least two stolen bases, but 5-7 otherwise. The team also got some help courtesy of Anthony Selway, who scored three runs and stole two bases while going 2-for-3.
