Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask St. Pius X). Everything went their way against the Highland Hornets on Friday as they made off with an 18-1 victory. The team's explosion at the plate also rewarded the Sartans with their most commanding win of the season.
Jacob Madrid was a major factor while hitting and pitching. He pitched three innings while giving up just one earned run off two hits. He also tossed a walk, which is notable because St. Pius X is undefeated when he allows at most two walks, but 10-11 otherwise. Madrid was also stellar in the batter's box, getting on base in all four of his plate appearances with two runs, two RBI, and one double.
In other batting news, Santiago Lucero and Jax Mulville did most of the damage at the plate: Lucero went 1-for-2 with three runs and one RBI, while Mulville went 2-for-4 with three RBI and one run. Those three runs gave Lucero a new career-high. Zain Unis was another key player, going 1-for-4 with three runs and one RBI.
