Winning always takes teamwork, but on Saturday Jake Bator stepped things up a notch to give Silver Creek the 'W'. Mead had no answer to Bator as he struck out ten batters over five innings while giving up four earned (and two unearned) runs off nine hits (and only one walk).
Bator's strong effort led Silver Creek over Mead and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on Monday. Bator has dominated as far as walks are concerned (he's averaged 1.8 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Mead has only allowed 3.44 per game this season.
