After losing to Durand/Pecatonica the last time they met, Lena-Winslow decided to demonstrate that turnabout is fair play. The Panthers put the hurt on the Rivermen with a sharp 12-5 win on Tuesday. Considering the Panthers have won 11 matches by more than five runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.
Luke Madigan made a splash no matter where he played. He struck out six batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). He has been consistent: he hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts in six consecutive appearances. He was also solid in the batter's box, going 1-for-4 with one home run and two RBI.
In other batting news, Koby Kearns and Aiden Wild did most of the damage at the plate: Kearns went 2-for-3 with two runs, one triple, and one stolen base, while Wild went 3-for-4 with two stolen bases, two runs, and one triple. That triple marked the first that Kearns has hit this season. Another player making a difference was Jaden Schubert, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with two RBI, one run, and one double.
Lena-Winslow kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least 12 hits in three consecutive contests.
Lena-Winslow has been performing well recently as they've won ten of their last 13 games. That's provided a nice bump to their 16-6-1 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.6 runs over those games. As for Durand/Pecatonica, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 3-16.
Lena-Winslow will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Rivermen: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday.
