Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Eagan). They put the hurt on the Burnsville Blaze with a sharp 13-3 victory on Monday. The Wildcats haven't had any issues with the Blaze recently, as the game was their third consecutive win against them.
Will Mitchell made a splash while hitting and pitching. He tossed four innings while giving up three earned runs off seven hits. Mitchell was also stellar in the batter's box, scoring a run and stealing a base while going 2-for-2. That stolen base marked the first that he snagged this season.
In other batting news, Brody Illa was a standout: he got on base in three of his four plate appearances with two runs, one triple, and two RBI. Those runs marked the first that he scored this season. Theo King was another key player, scoring two runs while going 2-for-3.
Eagan was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .444. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .300 or higher in three consecutive matches.
