Bethlehem<\/a> took a 12-run defeat the last time they faced off against Paxton<\/a>, but this time they managed to keep it close and that made all the difference. The Wildcats had just enough and edged out the Bobcats 10-8. For those keeping track at home, that’s the closest win the Wildcats have posted since April 7, 2025.<\/p>\n

Justin Miller<\/a> made a splash while hitting and pitching. He looked comfortable on the mound, pitching six innings while giving up three earned (and one unearned) runs off three hits. Miller was also stellar in the batter’s box, going 1-for-3 with one home run, one stolen base, and two RBI. That home run was his first of the season.<\/p>\n

Miller wasn’t the only one making solid contact as five players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Kason Paul<\/a>, who went 2-for-3 with three runs and one RBI. Paul is becoming a predictor of Bethlehem’s success: when he posts at least two runs the team is undefeated (and 1-4 when he doesn’t). Another was Daiden Hardy<\/a>, who went 2-for-4 with one run and one RBI.<\/p>\n

The victory (which was Bethlehem’s third in a row) raised their record to 8-4. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 13.0 runs over those games. As for Paxton, they are on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 6-7.<\/p>\n

Paxton has already played their next game (against Florala), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing. Bethlehem will be paying especially close attention to the Bobcats’ contest: after the Bobcats face off against Vernon, they’ll take on Bethlehem again at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
