Keyport had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 15-run drubbing they dealt Lakewood on Wednesday. The Raiders were the clear victors by a 20-5 margin over the Piners. The win continues a trend for the Raiders in their matchups with the Piners: they've now won six in a row.
Tristan Knoblauch was a major factor no matter where he played. He tossed 1.2 innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. Knoblauch was also stellar in the batter's box, scoring two runs and stealing two bases while going 2-for-3. He is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now snagged at least one in each of the last four games he's played dating back to last season.
In other pitching news, Danny Metrick and Paxton Douglass dominated on the mound. Metrick scored three runs and stole four bases while going 2-for-3, while Douglass tossed one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits.
