For whatever reason, it's the away team that's had the advantage when Preston and Century meet (three straight games heading into this one) and that held true again on Thursday. The Indians were the clear victors by a 15-0 margin over the Diamondbacks. The match marked the Indians' most dominant victory of the season.
Not much got past Caide Oxborrow, who gave up just a hit and racked up ten Ks to keep Century off the board. Oxborrow is becoming a predictor of Preston's success: when he allows at most one hit the team is 2-1 (and 4-9 when he doesn't).
