Exeter waltzed into their contest on Monday with two straight wins... but they left with three. They blew past the Verona Wildcats 19-3. Considering the Tigers have won six games by more than ten runs this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.

He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out eight batters over four innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off three hits (and only one walk). He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than two walks in three consecutive appearances. He was also big at the plate, getting on base in all four of his plate appearances with three stolen bases, three runs, and one double. He has become a key player for Exeter: the team is undefeated when he posts at least two runs, but 4-12 otherwise.
