Pickford put another one in the bag on Saturday to keep their undefeated season alive. They blew past the Heston Academy Patriots 14-2. The result was nothing new for the Panthers, who have now won five games by six runs or more so far this season.
Mason Andrzejak was a major factor no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, tossing 1.2 innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than one hit in three consecutive appearances. He was also big at the plate, getting on base in two of his four plate appearances with one stolen base and one run.
In other batting news, Pickford let Mac Collins and Jacob Mitchell run wild. Collins went 2-for-3 with two stolen bases, three runs, and three RBI, while Mitchell went 1-for-2 with three stolen bases, three runs, and one RBI. Collins is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now snagged at least one in each of the last three games he's played. Another player making a difference was Owen McConkey, who went 1-for-3 with two runs, one stolen base, and two RBI.
Pickford always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .562. That was just more of the same: they've now posted an OBP of .562 or higher in three consecutive matches.
Pickford's win bumped their record up to 7-0-1. As for Heston Academy, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 2-4.
