Lehman had already won four in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 10.5 runs) and they went ahead and made it five on Thursday. They never let East Harlem get on the board and left with a 10-0 win. Considering the Lions have won 13 matches by more than eight runs this season, Thursday's blowout was nothing new.

Keven Luciano was a major factor no matter where he played. On the mound, he didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits while striking out 13 over six innings pitched. That's the most strikeouts he has posted since back in April. He was also solid in the batter's box, going 2-for-3 with one stolen base, two RBI, and one run.

In other batting news, Lehman let Jhon Matos and Rayniel Linares run wild. Matos went 1-for-2 with four stolen bases, two runs, and two RBI, while Linares went a perfect 2-for-2 with two stolen bases, two runs, and one double. That's the most runs Matos has posted since back in April. Jesus Flores was another key player, going 1-for-3 with one triple, one stolen base, and one run.

Lehman always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .556. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as East Harlem only posted an OBP of .200.

Lehman's victory was their ninth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 20-1-1. Those home wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 13.0 runs over those games. As for East Harlem, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 4-6 record this season.

As of now, neither Lehman nor East Harlem have any future games scheduled.
