Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Edison). Their pitchers stepped up to hand the Lanier Voks a 21-0 shutout on Friday. The Golden Bears have beaten the Voks the last seven times they've met, but they better watch out: this was the closest the Voks has come to flipping the script.
Hector Narvaez was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he tossed one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits. What's more, he posted two strikeouts, the most he's had since back in March of 2024. He was also stellar in the batter's box, scoring four runs and stealing three bases while getting on base in four of his five plate appearances.
In other pitching news, Luis Garcia Smith looked comfortable as he went 3-for-5 with four RBI, two runs, and two doubles. He also tossed no earned runs, which is notable because Edison is undefeated when he allows at most one earned run, but 3-4 otherwise.
Back at the plate, Sergio Villarreal and Samaad Bunch did most of the damage at the plate: Villarreal scored two runs and stole a base while getting on base in three of his five plate appearances, while Bunch scored two runs and stole three bases while going 1-for-3. That's the most stolen bases Bunch has posted since back in February. Blaze Acosta-Torres was another key player, scoring a run and stealing a base while going 1-for-2.
