Peotone had to settle for second on Friday, but Ruben Velasco sure wasn't going down easily. Despite the defeat, Velasco was still locked in as he got on base in four of his five plate appearances with one home run, two runs, and one double. That home run was his first of the season.
Coming up, Velasco and Peotone will square off against Manteno at 4:30 p.m. on Monday. Peotone has some work to do to even out the 2-8 series between these two since May of 2019, but a win here would be a good start.
