Groves came tearing into Thursday's contest with four straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 9 runs), and they left with even more momentum. They put the hurt on the Beach Bulldogs with a sharp 15-2 win. That's the third time they've managed to beat them this season, with their most recent victory being a 10-0 win last Tuesday.
Braylin Davenport made a splash while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he pitched two innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off two hits. He has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than two hits in three consecutive appearances. He was also stellar in the batter's box, scoring three runs while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances. Groves is 6-1 when Davenport posts two or more runs, but 2-4 otherwise.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Matt Livengood, who scored three runs while going 1-for-2. Those three runs gave him a new career-high. Jadahri Steele was another key player, scoring two runs and stealing three bases while going 1-for-4.
Groves pushed their record up to 8-5 with the victory, which was their third straight on the road. The road wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 4.0 runs on average over those games. As for Beach, they are on a nine-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-5.
As of now, neither Groves nor the Bulldogs have any future games scheduled.
