Sanford finished the game with six innings under his belt, which adds to the five innings he pitched last week. He finished the contest without allowing a run and also gave up only one walk with four hits on the day. He allowed every hit that the Penguins had on the day, which is fine, considering no damage was done. Sanford also finished the game with a total of six strikeouts, averaging one every inning.

The Ducks had one home run on the day, which came off the bat of center fielder Jack Brooks, who was hitting in the nine hole for the Ducks on the day. The general of the outfield is a utility player who can play multiple positions as a junior, and is one of the key pieces to the success the Ducks have had thus far. Brooks will be a key player moving forward, as he is a game-changer when he is on a roll.

The Ducks will now turn their focus to their next contest, which is slated for Sunday. This is the third of a four-game series between the Ducks and the Penguins. This game is slated for a 3:05 PM local first pitch, which will be followed by the final game of the series on Sunday at 3:05 PM local.
