Greencastle waltzed into their matchup on Wednesday with six straight wins... but they left with seven. Everything went their way against the Sullivan Golden Arrows as they made off with a 10-1 win. The result was nothing new for the Tiger Cubs, who have now won ten games by seven runs or more so far this season.
Sam Gooch made a splash no matter where he played. He pitched five innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits. He has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than two walks in four consecutive appearances. He was also stellar in the batter's box, getting on base in all five of his plate appearances with three stolen bases, five runs, and one RBI. That's the most runs he has posted since back in April.
In other batting news, Nathan Sutherlin was excellent, going 2-for-4 with two stolen bases, two RBI, and one run. Ashton Dayhuff was another key player, getting on base in four of his five plate appearances with two stolen bases.
Greencastle pushed their record up to 15-3 with the victory, which was their sixth straight on the road. The road wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.8 runs on average over those games. As for Sullivan, they moved to 16-3 with that loss, which also ended their seven-game winning streak.
