Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Bear River). Their pitchers stepped up to hand the Mira Loma Matadors a 27-0 shutout on Friday. With that victory, the Bruins brought their scoring average up to 7.4 runs per game.
Kale Munn and Seth Strong made a big impact while hitting and pitching. Throwing, Munn struck out six batters over two innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits (and not a single walk). Meanwhile, Strong struck out seven batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). At bat, Munn scored three runs while going 3-for-6, while Strong scored a run and stole a base while going 1-for-5.
