Clarkston barely beat North Central the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. The Bantams were the clear victors by a 9-2 margin over the Wolfpack on Friday. That's the second time they've managed to beat them this season, as they also won 7-5 back in March.
Kendry Gimlin was a major factor while hitting and pitching. He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out ten batters over 6.2 innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off five hits (and not a single walk). He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in five consecutive appearances. He was also solid in the batter's box, going 2-for-4 with one stolen base, one run, and one RBI.
In other batting news, Hayden Line was a standout: he went 3-for-4 with two runs, one stolen base, and one double. He is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now snagged at least one in each of the last three games he's played. Jacen Farrally also deserves some recognition as he brought in his first RBI of the season.
Clarkston was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .412. That's the best batting average they've posted all season.
Clarkston is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 8-9 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 7.4 runs over those games. As for North Central, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 8-9.
The teams wasted no time getting back out on the field as they've already faced off again: they played to a 2-2 draw later that day.
