In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Kyle Watkins, who went 3-for-5 with two stolen bases, three runs, and one RBI. That's the most runs he has posted since back in March. Another player making a difference was Reme Strong, who went 1-for-3 with three runs, one stolen base, and two RBI.
Kelseyville kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least eight hits in three consecutive games.
