Wenatchee came tearing into Friday's match with six straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 9.3 runs), and they left with even more momentum. They put the hurt on the Sunnyside Grizzlies with a sharp 18-1 win. While the Panthers didn't have the best season last year (they finished 8-14), it's starting to look like those struggles are a thing of the past.

The team relied heavily on Nolan Godfrey, who scored three runs and stole a base while going 4-for-5. That's the most runs he has posted since back in March of 2024. Thomas Ivey was another key player, scoring a run and stealing a base while going 2-for-2.

Wenatchee always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .533. That was just more of the same: they've now posted an OBP of .500 or higher in seven consecutive contests.

Wenatchee pushed their record up to 7-1 with the victory, which was their fourth straight on the road. Those road wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 15.3 runs over those games. As for Sunnyside, they are on a ten-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-10.

Coming up, Wenatchee will venture away from home to challenge Eisenhower at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Cadets' pitching crew has only allowed 2.8 runs per game this season, so the Panthers' hitters will have their work cut out for them. As for Sunnyside, they will challenge Davis at 3:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Grizzlies are facing the Pirates at the right time seeing as the Pirates are stuck on a six-game losing streak.
