Galileo had already won seven in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 8 runs) and they went ahead and made it eight on Wednesday. They never let the Leadership Griffin get on the board and left with a 10-0 victory. That's the second time they've managed to beat them this season, as they also won 7-0 back in March.
Elijah Michael was a major factor while hitting and pitching. He didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits while striking out eight over five innings pitched. Those eight strikeouts gave him a new career-high. He was also solid in the batter's box, scoring two runs and stealing two bases while going 1-for-2. He has been hot recently, having posted two or more stolen bases the last four times he's played.
In other batting news, Cody Yung and Giovani Verde did most of the damage at the plate: Yung scored a run and stole three bases while going 2-for-2, while Verde scored two runs and stole four bases while going 2-for-3. Yung is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now snagged at least one in each of the last four games he's played. The team also got some help courtesy of Everett Kerns, who scored two runs and stole a base while getting on base in two of his three plate appearances.
Galileo pushed their record up to 10-2 with the win, which was their sixth straight at home. The home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 0.8 runs on average over those games. As for Leadership, they are on a seven-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-4.
Galileo will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Griffin: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 3:30 p.m. on Thursday.
