While Wake Christian Academy put up plenty of runs on Tuesday, the same can't be said for St. David. The Bulldogs put the hurt on the Warriors with a sharp 14-0 win. The Bulldogs might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won six matches by eight runs or more this season.

Brody Morris made a big impact no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out seven batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than one walk in four consecutive appearances. He was also solid in the batter's box, scoring a run and stealing a base while going 1-for-2.

In other pitching news, Nathan Winstead looked comfortable as he pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. He has been consistent : he hasn't given up more than one earned run in eight consecutive appearances.

Back at the plate, the team relied heavily on Trace Turner, who went 2-for-4 with two stolen bases, four RBI, and two runs. Those four RBI gave him a new career-high. Grayson Durrant also deserves some recognition as he snagged his first stolen base of the season.

Wake Christian Academy kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as St. David's only managed one hit.

Wake Christian Academy's victory was their fifth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 10-4. Those home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.4 runs on average over those games. As for St. David's, their defeat dropped their record down to 5-4.

The teams didn't have to wait long for a rematch: Wake Christian Academy beat the Warriors by a score of 3-1 on Thursday.
