⚾️Recruits Make History with 18-5 Rout of Defending Champion ATX Wicked⚾️
History was made Sunday at Downs Field.
In just their inaugural season, the Generals Baseball Club 18+ Recruits Battalion earned the organization’s first-ever playoff victory in the 18+ division, rolling past defending league champion ATX Wicked by a score of 18-5.
After a scoreless first inning, the Recruits exploded for nine runs in the second, fueled by RBIs from Joe Fenner, Joe Quinlan, Andrew Saucedo, Josh Doyle, and Ty Collins. They never looked back, adding two more runs in the third before erupting for seven runs in the fourth behind Maxx Ribble’s three-run home run, Joseph Rajo’s two-run double, and Jacob Garza’s two-run single.
The Battalion piled up 16 hits in one of its best offensive performances of the season.
Garza led the way, going 3-for-4 with four RBIs while also earning the win on the mound. He allowed just one hit over 3⅓ innings, striking out five. Rajo also collected three hits, while Ribble and Quinlan added multi-hit performances. Fenner, Doyle, Collins, and Saucedo all drove in key runs as the lineup produced from top to bottom.
The Recruits also played clean defense, committing no errors in the milestone victory.
With the win, the Battalion not only advanced in the postseason but secured the first playoff victory in Generals Baseball Club history at the 18+ level—and did it in dominant fashion against the defending champions.
