The Wekiva Mustangs will be taking part in a tournament against the Innovation Bulls at 6:30 p.m. on Monday. Wekiva is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 7.6 runs per game this season.
It looked like the Kentucky Derby when Wekiva took on Davenport on Friday. Wekiva fell just short of Davenport by a score of 9-8.
Emil Flaquer was huge while hitting and pitching even without the win. On the mound, he struck out eight batters over 6.1 innings while giving up just two earned (and two unearned) runs off three hits. Flaquer was also solid in the batter's box, scoring a run and stealing a base while going 1-for-4.
In other batting news, Brady Reinert and Enrique Polanco stepped up to the plate in a big way. Reinert scored a run and stole a base while getting on base in three of his five plate appearances, while Polanco scored a run and stole a base while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances. Reinert is also on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now stolen at least one in each of the last four games he's played. Nowah James was another key player, scoring a run and stealing two bases while going 1-for-3.
Meanwhile, Tuesday just wasn't the day for Innovation's offense. They came up short against West Orange two weeks ago, falling 11-0. Having soared to a lofty 14 runs in the game before, the Bulls' shutout was a dramatic turnaround.
Innovation saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Tyler Nunez, who went 1-for-2 with one double.
Wekiva has traveled a rocky road recently having lost four of their last five contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 2-5 record this season. That patch can't be blamed on the team's hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.0 runs over those games. Innovation's loss dropped their record down to 1-1.
