It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Juab had no problem doing just that on Thursday. Their pitchers stepped up to hand the American Leadership Academy Eagles a 12-0 shutout. The Wasps might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 11 matchups by six runs or more this season.
The team relied heavily on Austin Park, who went 2-for-3 with three RBI, two runs, and one triple. That's the most RBI he has posted since back in May of 2024. The team also got some help courtesy of Koen Matinson, who went 1-for-2 with two RBI, one run, and one double.
Juab always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .633. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
The win (which was Juab's seventh in a row) raised their record to 21-5. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.9 runs on average over those games. As for American Leadership Academy, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost 13 of their last 15 games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 7-19 record this season.
Juab will have a chance to go back-to-back against American Leadership Academy: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 1:00 p.m. on Friday.
