Serena was led to victory by Carson Baker, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Tuesday. Baker was dynamite, striking out 15 batters over 5.2 innings while giving up just two earned (and one unearned) runs off one hit. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts in five consecutive pitching appearances.
Baker's strong effort led Serena over Newark and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Thanks in part to Baker's efforts, Serena will roll in on a three-game winning streak. Will Baker and the rest of the team keep the streak alive? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more baseball content.
