Quotable:
Arcadia pitcher, Casey Spencer: “Going into this game, I was definitely fired up to pitch since we are both undefeated in league. I realized my stuff was working early in the game. My fastball was good with velocity and command setting up my changeup and curveball. Pitching is a lot easier when I have a team like I do behind me. They track down every ball and make every routine play and that’s all you can ask for as a pitcher. Our bats woke up early, we were able to keep stacking on runs every inning, constantly applying pressure to end up beating them by a good margin.”
