Roncalli entered their tilt with Fairmont on Saturday with nine consecutive wins, and they'll enter their next game with ten. They blew past the Firebirds 11-1. The Royals might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 12 matches by six runs or more this season.
Collin Ash was a major factor no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out seven batters over five innings while giving up just one earned run off two hits (and not a single walk). That's the most strikeouts he has posted since back in April. He was also big at the plate, going 3-for-4 with one run, one double, and one RBI.
In other batting news, Gio Ardizone was incredible, going 3-for-4 with one home run, three runs, and three RBI. That's the most runs he has posted since back in April. Another player making a difference was Sam Roeder, who went 3-for-4 with two doubles, one stolen base, and one run.
Roncalli always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .667. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Fairmont only posted an OBP of .118.
Roncalli pushed their record up to 20-3 with the win, which was their 11th straight at home. Those home victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.8 runs over those games. As for Fairmont, they are on a five-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 13-14.
Roncalli will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Firebirds: the pair will be back at it again later today.
