Eisenhower had lost 11 straight on the road dating back to last season, but on Thursday they dropped their record down to 1-11 to make it 12. They lost 10-0 to the Corry Beavers. The result was an unpleasant reminder to the Knights of the 15-0 defeat they experienced in the pair's previous head-to-head fixture back in April of 2017.
As for Corry, the victory made it two in a row for them and bumps their season record up to 8-8. They might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won six matches by six runs or more this season.
For Corry's part, Kamdyn Moon and Tucker Jackson made a big impact while hitting and pitching. On the mound, Moon struck out seven batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). Meanwhile, Jackson pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. Moon also tossed no earned runs, which is notable because Corry is 2-1 when he allows at most one earned run, but 6-7 otherwise. At the plate, Moon went a perfect 3-for-3 with three stolen bases, three runs, and one triple, while Jackson went a perfect 3-for-3 with two runs and one stolen base. Those three stolen bases gave Moon a new career-high.
In other batting news, Wyatt Swan was incredible, going 3-for-4 with two runs, one stolen base, and two RBI. Those two runs gave him a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Zack Coulter, who went 1-for-3 with two stolen bases and two RBI.
Coming up, Eisenhower is taking a road trip to square off against Iroquois at 4:30 p.m. on Friday. As for Corry, they will host North East at 4:00 p.m. on Monday. The Grape Pickers' pitching crew has only allowed four runs per game this season, so the Beavers' hitters will have their work cut out for them.
