Ten must be Rittman's lucky number: they beat Crestline with that score not once but twice on Saturday. The Indians didn't even let the Bulldogs on the board, marking the Indians' second-straight 10-0 shutout. The result was nothing new for the Indians, who have now won five matchups by ten runs or more so far this season.
Joey Schimpf looked comfortable as he tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit.
On the hitting side, Carson Smith was a standout: he scored three runs and stole two bases while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances. Rittman is undefeated when Smith posts two or more runs, but 2-3 otherwise. Odin Weirick was another key player, scoring a run and stealing a base while going 2-for-4.
Rittman pushed their record up to 5-3 with the victory, which was their fourth straight at home dating back to last season. The home wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.8 runs over those games. As for Crestline, they are on a six-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-6.
Both teams will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Rittman will challenge Dalton at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. As for Crestline, they will venture away from home to face off against Central Christian at 5:00 p.m. on Monday. The Comets have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 8.75 runs per game on average), something the Bulldogs will no doubt try to take advantage of.
