Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Mogadore). They never let the Aquinas Knights get on the board and left with an 11-0 win on Monday. The victory continues a trend for the Wildcats in their matchups with the Knights: they've now won seven in a row.
Mogadore got a great performance from Cole Reese as he kept things locked down with no earned runs or hits while striking out seven over five innings pitched. Reese has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two walks in four consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Jake Hopkins was incredible, getting on base in all three of his plate appearances with three stolen bases, three runs, and one double. Those three stolen bases gave him a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Jimmy Woods, who went 2-for-3 with two stolen bases and three RBI.
Mogadore always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .586. They are 2-1 when they post an OBP of .513 or better.
Mogadore's win was their first in the conference, bumping their conference record up to 1-5 and their overall record up to 2-11. As for Aquinas, they have been struggling recently as they've lost eight of their last nine contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 2-10 record this season.
Mogadore will have a chance to go back-to-back against Aquinas: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday.
