Burley took care of business in their home opener (and then some) on Thursday. They blew past the Malad Dragons 10-0.
Burley got a great performance from Mack Haynes as he didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits while striking out nine over five innings pitched.
At the plate, Jacoby Roe was incredible, getting on base in all four of his plate appearances with two runs, one triple, and one stolen base. Jake Redder was another key player, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with two runs, one triple, and one RBI.
Burley always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .613. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Malad only posted an OBP of .300.
Malad's defeat dropped their record down to 1-1.
Coming up, Malad will venture away from home to face off against Ogden at 3:30 p.m. on Friday. Burley will be paying especially close attention to the Dragons' game: after the Dragons face off against the Tigers, they'll take on Burley again at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday.
