Edison pulls away from Oak Glen to improve to 3-0

RICHMOND — The Edison baseball team made it three wins in as many tries this season on Thursday.

The Wildcats were one of the few teams in the area to get on the field Thursday due to the weather, and took advantage with a 14-1 victory over visiting Oak Glen at the Edison Unified Sports Complex.

After the Golden Bears (3-5) tied the game at 1-1 in the top of the third, the Wildcats plated five runs in the bottom half, then tacked on an even bigger inning in the fourth, scoring eight to pull away and bring the run rule into play.

Edison pounded out 17 hits on the day. Jackson McBane had three of them with a double and two singles, driving in three runs.

Bryce Rogers, JD Henderson and Kyle Long each had two hits and two RBIs, while Kayden Russell also drove in a pair.

McBane tossed four innings for the win, striking out five.

For Oak Glen, Josh Maher had the lone RBI.
