Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Blackfoot). They were the clear victors by a 25-1 margin over the Century Diamondbacks on Monday. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest victory of the season.
Peyton Taylor was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he pitched one inning while giving up no earned runs off one hit. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than two hits in four consecutive appearances. He was also big at the plate, going 2-for-4 with two runs, one triple, and one RBI. That's the most hits he has posted since back in April of 2024.
In other batting news, Blackfoot let Conner Cannon and Cody Smith run wild. Cannon went a perfect 5-for-5 with five RBI and two runs, while Smith went 3-for-5 with three doubles, four RBI, and two runs. Those five RBI gave Cannon a new career-high. Jake Vance also deserves some recognition as he hit his first triple of the season.
Blackfoot always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .773. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
