Landry Boyd looked comfortable as he pitched three innings while giving up just one earned run off two hits. Foster is undefeated when Boyd allowsone or fewer earned runs, but 6-10-1 otherwise.
On the hitting side, AJ Rajabi was incredible, going a perfect 2-for-2 with five RBI, two runs, and two doubles. Jesse Chacon also deserves some recognition as he brought in his first RBI of the season.
Foster always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .650. The last time their OBP was this high was since the start of last season.
Meanwhile, Fulshear never let their opponents score on Friday. They were the clear victors by a 21-0 margin over Alief Hastings. Considering the Chargers have won seven contests by more than five runs this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
Ty Powell made a splash no matter where he played. On the mound, he struck out six batters over two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit (and not a single walk). He has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than two hits in three consecutive appearances. He was also big at the plate, going a perfect 2-for-2 with two runs, one triple, and one RBI. That's the most hits he has posted since back in February.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Riley Chamberlain, who got on base in all three of his plate appearances with one home run, three RBI, and two runs. Those three RBI gave him a new career-high. Trey Giametta was another key player, scoring two runs while going 1-for-1.
Fulshear has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won ten of their last 11 matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 15-4-1 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.4 runs on average over those games. The victory got Foster back to even at 10-10-1.
Foster came up short against Fulshear in their previous meeting back in April of 2024, falling 5-2. Can Foster avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
