Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Ida B. Wells). They were the clear victors by a 24-5 margin over the Roosevelt Roughriders on Friday. The Guardians might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won six games by six runs or more this season.
Grae Wilson made a big impact while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he pitched three innings while giving up just one earned run but no hits. Wilson was also stellar in the batter's box, going a perfect 4-for-4 with five RBI, one run, and one double. Those five RBI gave him a new career-high.
In other batting news, Cody Roletto was a standout: he went a perfect 3-for-3 with three runs, three RBI, and two doubles. He is becoming a predictor of Ida B. Wells' success: when he posts at least three RBI the team is undefeated (and 5-6 when he doesn't). Jackson Poole also deserves some recognition as he hit his first triple of the season.
Ida B. Wells was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .600. They are a perfect 4-0 when they post a batting average of .375 or better.
Ida B. Wells is on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six contests. That's provided a massive bump to their 9-6 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.8 runs over those games. As for Roosevelt, their defeat was their fifth straight on the road, which dropped their record down to 4-12.
