Mountain Vista had already won six in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 6.2 runs) and they went ahead and made it seven on Monday. They walked away with a 6-3 victory over the Legend Titans. That's more bragging rights for the Golden Eagles, who also won the pair's last head-to-head.
Mountain Vista got several good pitching performances, but Jake Huddle was perhaps the best, pitching 1.1 innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. Huddle has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than one walk any time he's pitched this season.
At the plate, Spike Magill was excellent, going 1-for-3 with one home run and two RBI. Cole Bobbin also deserves some recognition as he snagged his first stolen base of the season.
Mountain Vista always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .515. That was just more of the same: they've now posted an OBP of .500 or higher in five consecutive matches.
Mountain Vista's win was their fifth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 10-5. The home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.0 runs on average over those games. As for Legend, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost six of their last seven contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 4-11 record this season.
Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Mountain Vista will head out to face off against Ponderosa at 4:15 p.m. on Wednesday. The Golden Eagles' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Mustangs have averaged an impressive 7.9 runs per game this season. As for Legend, they will venture away from home to challenge Douglas County at 4:15 p.m. on Wednesday. The last three games the Huskies have played have been within two runs, so don't be surprised if it's a close one.
