St. Thomas Aquinas's rock-solid pitchers showed up for the team's third consecutive shutout on Wednesday. They never let the McArthur Mustangs get on the board and left with a 16-0 victory. That 16 run margin sets a new team best for the Raiders this season.
Luke Megally looked comfortable as he pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. What's more, he gave up only one walk, the fewest he's had since back in February.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Andrew Alvarez, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with one home run, two runs, and one stolen base. That's the most hits he has posted since back in February. Brady Buxbaum also deserves some recognition as he hit his first triple of the season.
St. Thomas Aquinas lost a few balls and finished the game with three home runs. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as McArthur didn't launched any home runs.
St. Thomas Aquinas is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 12-4-1 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.9 runs on average over those games. McArthur's loss was their eighth straight on the road, which dropped their record down to 2-16.
Looking ahead, St. Thomas Aquinas will take on Jupiter at 6:31 p.m. on Friday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average, (Jupiter 2.9, St. Thomas Aquinas 2.5) so any runs scored will be well earned. McArthur will have a little extra prep time after the defeat as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Everglades at 6:30 p.m. on April 3rd.
