Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Mechanicville walked away with it. They put the hurt on the Corinth Riverhawks with a sharp 10-0 victory on Tuesday. The Red Raiders might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won nine matches by seven runs or more this season.
Paige Rogers was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run while striking out ten over seven innings pitched. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't given up more than two walks in 13 consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, going 3-for-4 with one triple, one run, and one RBI.
In other batting news, Mechanicville got a massive performance out of Addison Pane, who went 2-for-4 with one home run, two runs, and two RBI. Kendall Beuchner was another key player, going 2-for-3 with one home run and three RBI.
Mechanicville was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .469. They are a perfect 8-0 when they post a batting average of .375 or better.
The win (which was Mechanicville's third in a row) raised their record to 11-8. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 15.0 runs over those games. As for Corinth, their defeat dropped their record down to 1-3.
Coming up, Mechanicville will head out on the road to challenge Catholic Central at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (the Red Raiders 3.7, the Crusaders 3.5) so any runs scored will be well earned. Corinth does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
