Brother Rice had to skate by with only a two-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 20-run drubbing they dealt Hubbard on Wednesday. The Crusaders' pitcher stepped up to hand the Greyhounds a 20-0 shutout. Considering the Crusaders have won 16 contests by more than five runs this season, Wednesday's blowout was nothing new.
Brady Cunningham made a splash while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. What's more, he posted five strikeouts, the most he's had since May 1st. He was also solid in the batter's box, going 1-for-2 with two runs and one double.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Gavin Triezenberg, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with two stolen bases, two runs, and one triple. Conner Stack also deserves some recognition as he hit his first triple of the season.
Brother Rice always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .786. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
Brother Rice's win was their 19th straight at home, which pushed their record up to 32-3. The home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.5 runs on average over those games. As for Hubbard, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost eight of their last nine matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 12-12-1 record this season.
As of now, neither Brother Rice nor Hubbard have any future games scheduled.
