Palmer's Pitching Strikes out the Tobs
June 24, 2018 - Coastal Plain League (Coastal Plain)
Peninsula Pilots News Release
After a tough start to the season with the Wilson Tobs, the Peninsula Pilots have rebounded and have won their last two matches against them. Tonight the Pilots beat the Tobs 5-1 and remain at the top of their division with a record of 11-6.
The always hot Tyler Adams got things going for the Pilots in the bottom of the first with a solo homerun. However, it was another great night of pitching for the Pilots as Douglas Palmer pitched five shutout innings and had eight strikeouts. While Eric Mullet came in to finish the Tobs off as he had three scoreless innings pitched.
The pitching and the bats are looking good for the Pilots and they'll need the momentum from this win as they head south on a road trip to play Florence and Savannah in the early parts of the coming week. The Pilots will be back at War Memorial Stadium on Thursday for a double-header against the Edenton Steamers.
