Aldine had already won eight in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 7.5 runs) and they went ahead and made it nine on Friday. They narrowly escaped with a victory as the squad sidled past the Spring Lions 3-1. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest win the Mustangs have posted since March 29th.
Jansyel Barbosa made a big impact no matter where he played. He struck out seven batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned run off eight hits. That's the most strikeouts he has posted since back in April of 2024. He was also big at the plate, going 2-for-3 with one stolen base.
In other batting news, Alberto Gonzalez was excellent, going a perfect 2-for-2 with one triple and one RBI. That triple marked the first that he has hit this season. Another player making a difference was Julian Velez, who went 1-for-3 with two runs and one stolen base.
Aldine pushed their record up to 19-3 with the victory, which was their fourth straight on the road. The road wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.5 runs over those games. As for Spring, their defeat ended a six-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 19-11.
Looking ahead, Aldine will face off against Conroe at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Tigers' pitching crew has only allowed 2.9 runs per game this season, so the Mustangs' hitters will have their work cut out for them. Spring has already played their next game (against Oak Ridge), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing.
