Kyle Brimhall was dynamite on Thursday, striking out eight batters over four innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits (and only one walk). As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his sixth in a row with more than five strikeouts. For the season, Brimhall has been strong no matter where he plays. On the mound, he has an ERA of 3.30 over 40.3 innings pitched. Meanwhile, at bat he has slashed 0.379/0.543/0.897 with 34 runs and 8 home runs, plus 12 stolen bases.
Brimhall's strong effort led Grantsville over South Summit and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 1:00 p.m. on Friday. Brimhall has dominated as far as walks are concerned (he's averaged 1.1 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering South Summit has only allowed 3.25 per game this season.
