Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Drew). They walked away with a 14-10 win over the Gateway Gators on Friday. This was a revenge game for the Dragons: when they faced off against the Gators on Tuesday, they had to take a 5-1 defeat.
Kyle Ebrado was a major factor while hitting and pitching. He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out 13 batters over six innings while giving up just two earned (and five unearned) runs off three hits. Those 13 strikeouts gave him a new career-high. He was also big at the plate, going 1-for-6 with one home run, four RBI, and one stolen base. That home run was his first of the season.
In other batting news, Tejas Strand was incredible, getting on base in five of his six plate appearances with three stolen bases, three runs, and one RBI. What's more, he posted two hits, the most he's had since back in April of 2024. Dylan Radcliffe also deserves some recognition as he hit his first triple of the season.
