White Cloud extended their losing streak to six on Monday, dropping their season record down to 5-14 in the process. They lost 10-2 to the Kent City Eagles. The Indians were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Eagles apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in May of 2024.
As for Kent City, the win (which was their fourth in a row) raised their record to 8-7. Considering they have won seven contests by more than seven runs this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.
For Kent City's part, Zach Flegel spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered only one earned (and one unearned) run on two hits and racked up 11 Ks. Flegel also tossed a walk, which is notable because the Eagles are undefeated when he allows at most one walk, but 5-7 otherwise.
At the plate, Aaron Vanderwest was excellent, getting on base in four of his five plate appearances with two runs and one stolen base. That's the most runs he has posted since back in March. Zayne Wiles was another key player, going 2-for-4 with three RBI.
While White Cloud had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair will be back at it again later today.
