Crestview had lost three straight, but after bumping their record up to 6-3 on Friday that streak is in the rearview. They came out on top in a nail-biter against the Columbiana Clippers, sneaking past 2-1. While the Rebels didn't have the best season last year (they finished 9-13), it's starting to look like those struggles are a thing of the past.
As for Columbiana, they now have a losing record of 5-6. They were red-hot at the plate heading into the matchup (they scored no less than ten runs in the five games prior), but Crestview's pitcher proved too tough.
For Columbiana's part, Avery Young spent all 8.1 innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered just two earned runs on eight hits. Young has been consistent: he hasn't given up more than two walks in five consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Columbiana saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Sam Inboden, who went 2-for-3 with one stolen base. Inboden 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. Beckett Wilson also deserves some recognition as he hit his first triple of the season.
Coming up, Crestview will look to defend their home field on Monday against Champion at 5:00 p.m. As for Columbiana, they didn't take long to hit the field again: they've already played their next contest, a 17-5 defeat against Girard on the 18th.
