The Kennesaw Mountain Mustangs will head out on the road to take on the Pebblebrook Falcons at 5:55 p.m. on Thursday. Kennesaw Mountain is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 9.2 runs per game this season.
While Kennesaw Mountain didn't have the best season last year (they finished 13-16), it's starting to look like those struggles are a thing of the past. They blew past Pebblebrook 13-3 on Tuesday. Considering the Mustangs have won four matches by more than nine runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.
Jackson Dietz made a splash while hitting and pitching. He pitched five innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off two hits. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in three consecutive appearances. He was also solid in the batter's box, getting on base in all three of his plate appearances with two RBI and one double.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Isander Poventud, who scored three runs and stole a base while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances. That's the most runs he has posted since back in March of 2024. Jake Phelps also deserves some recognition as he hit his first double of the season.
Kennesaw Mountain always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .710. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
Kennesaw Mountain has been performing well recently as they've won four of their last five contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 6-2 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.8 runs on average over those games. Pebblebrook's loss was their eighth straight on the road dating back to last season, which dropped their record down to 1-4.
