Maple Mountain was led to victory by Bennett Averett, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Averett wasn't messing around , getting on base in four of his five plate appearances with three runs, three RBI, and a triple. The pitching appearance was his sixth straight with one or fewer walks. He is trending in the right direction, as he's improved his point production for three straight games.
Averett's strong effort led Maple Mountain over Brighton and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday. Averett has dominated as far as hits are concerned (he's averaged 0.1 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Brighton has only allowed 8.74 per game this season.
