Christ School varsity baseball has won games this season with as few as two or three runs.
Wednesday was an offensive explosion at the other end of the spectrum.
Webb Hughes ’22 blasted a grand slam, Chase Gribble ’23 was one RBI shy with a three-run homer, and the Greenies scored a season-high 21 runs in a 21-11 victory at Franklin.
The nonconference game only went four innings.
Christ School (8-10) banged out 16 hits as a team, led individually by Webb (3-for-4 with a double and five RBIs), Johno Pierce (3-4 with a walk and two RBIs), Brody Raleigh ’23 (2-3 with a double, two walks, and five RBIs), Jakob Iwanek ’24 (2-3 with two walks), Samuel White ’22 (2-2 with two walks and an RBI), Luka Rose ‘25 (2-3), and Jack Young ’22 (1-3 with two RBIs).
Pitching-wise, Ethan Rose ’24 got the win, allowing six earned runs, two hits, and six walks in 2.2 innings to go with five strikeouts.
The Greenies return to Carolinas Athletic Association play with Friday’s 4:30 p.m. home game against Carolina Day.
