It's playoff time, and Sumrall had no trouble coming through when it counted. They never let the Raymond Rangers get on the board and left with a 14-0 win on Friday. The Bobcats might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 14 matchups by six runs or more this season.
Leo Odom was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. He has been consistent: he hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in eight consecutive appearances. He was also stellar in the batter's box, going a perfect 3-for-3 with three RBI and two doubles. That's the most hits he has posted since back in March.
In other pitching news, Rowan Atkinson looked comfortable as he pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. What's more, he posted four strikeouts, the most he's had since back in March.
Back at the plate, Sumrall got a massive performance out of Tyler Lowery, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs. Those two runs gave Lowery a new career-high. Braelyn Harrison was another key player, going a perfect 2-for-2 with three RBI, one stolen base, and one run.
Sumrall always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .724. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
The victory was the seventh in a row for Sumrall, bringing their record up to 21-7. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.3 runs on average over those games. As for Raymond, they have been struggling recently as they've lost seven of their last nine contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 6-18 record this season.
As of now, neither Sumrall nor Raymond have any future games scheduled.
