Conotton Valley's game last Saturday was a tough loss, but they didn't let that memory haunt them on Monday. They were the clear victor by a 9-2 margin over the East Canton Hornets. That result was just more of the same for these two, as Conotton Valley also won the last time the pair played back in March of 2022.
Logan Reiter and Brooks Bower made a big impact no matter where they played. Throwing, Reiter struck out eight batters over six innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off three hits. Meanwhile, Bower pitched an inning while giving up no earned runs or hits (he also didn't allow any walks). At the plate, Reiter scored a run and stole a base while going 1-for-2, while Bower scored two runs and stole a base while going 2-for-3. Bower is crushing it when it comes to stolen bases: he's stolen at least one every time he's taken the field this season.
In other batting news, Kam Wright was excellent, scoring two runs and stealing three bases while going 1-for-3. The team also got some help courtesy of Zach Putnam, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 2-for-4.
