They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 4-3 victory over the Samuel Everett School of Innovation Bulldogs. That's two games straight that Greenback has won by just one run.
Kooper Williams was a major factor while hitting and pitching. He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out eight batters over four innings while giving up just one earned run off two hits. Williams has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than two hits in three consecutive pitching appearances. Williams was also solid in the batter's box, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with a stolen base and an RBI.
In other batting news, Brady Allison was excellent, scoring a run and stealing two bases while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances. He has been hot recently, having posted at least one stolen base the last three times he's played. Connor James was another key contributor, scoring a run and stealing two bases while going 1-for-2.
Greenback is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven matches, which provided a nice bump to their 17-6 record this season.
