St. John Bosco barely beat Mater Dei the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. The Braves blew past the Monarchs 8-1 on Friday. The win was nothing new for the Braves as they're now sitting on eight straight.
Brayden Krakowski looked comfortable as he pitched three innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. He has been consistent for a while: he hasn't given up more than one earned run any time he's pitched this season.
At the plate, Miles Clark and Micah Taguiam did most of the damage at the plate: Clark got on base in all four of his plate appearances with one stolen base, two RBI, and one run, while Taguiam got on base in three of his four plate appearances with one home run. That's the most RBI Clark has posted since back in March. The team also got some help courtesy of James Clark, who went 1-for-4 with two runs, one stolen base, and one double.
St. John Bosco's victory was their eighth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 19-4. Those road wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.4 runs on average over those games. As for Mater Dei, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost eight of their last ten contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 13-11 record this season.
Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. St. John Bosco will square off against JSerra Catholic at 3:15 p.m. on Tuesday. The Lions' pitching crew has only allowed 3.4 runs per game this season, so the Braves' hitters will have their work cut out for them. As for Mater Dei, they will face off against Orange Lutheran at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (the Monarchs 3.2, the Lancers 2.2) so any runs scored will be well earned.
