With a playoff win on the line, Perrin-Whitt rose to the challenge on Thursday. They blew past the Munday Moguls 8-2. Considering the Pirates have won six matchups by more than five runs this season, Thursday's blowout was nothing new.
Cole Keeney made a splash no matter where he played. On the mound, he struck out seven batters over 2.2 innings while giving up just one earned run off two hits. Keeney was also solid in the batter's box, going 2-for-4 with two RBI.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Riley Sims, who went 2-for-3 with two runs, one stolen base, and one RBI. He is becoming a predictor of Perrin-Whitt's success: when he posts at least two runs the team is undefeated (and 6-7 when he doesn't). Another player making a difference was Travis Welch, who went 2-for-4 with one stolen base, one run, and one RBI.
Perrin-Whitt pushed their record up to 9-7 with the victory, which was their fourth straight at home. Those home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.0 runs on average over those games. As for Munday, this is the second loss in a row for them and also nudges their season record down to 9-7.
As of now, neither Perrin-Whitt nor the Moguls have any future games scheduled.
