Manchester Academy won the last time they faced Greenville Christian and things went their way on Thursday too. Manchester Academy was the clear victor by an 11-1 margin over Greenville Christian. The Mavericks might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 14 contests by six runs or more this season.

Manchester Academy let Grant Nixon and Joseph Beidleman run wild. Nixon scored a run and stole three bases while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances, while Beidleman scored a run and stole three bases while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances. Those three stolen bases gave Nixon a new career-high. Adam Edger was another key player, scoring a run and stealing two bases while going 1-for-3.

Manchester Academy has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won eight of their last nine matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 20-6 record this season. The team dominated over that stretch too, winning by an average of 11.6 runs. This is the second loss in a row for Greenville Christian and nudges their season record down to 1-4.

Manchester Academy will have a chance to go back-to-back against Greenville Christian: the pair will be back at it again later today.
