Garcia’s Masterful Outing
The Brewster Whitecaps rolled past the Kettleers 6-0 on a rain‑shortened night, the game called after seven innings under the lights. The victory not only delivered a shutout — the first of the season — but also extended the team’s winning streak to three games.
Starting pitcher Santiago Garcia turned in a commanding performance, allowing just three base runners across five innings while maintaining tight control. He credited the outing to a focused mindset and meticulous preparation, a stark contrast to his debut start when he walked three batters in 2.1 innings.
Offensive Sparks
The Whitecaps’ bats provided the necessary breathing room. Owen Jenkins delivered an insurance run in the fifth inning and later took part in the final two scores, while Jamie Laskofski was the first player to cross the plate, setting the tone for the offense.
Their combined efforts underscored a balanced attack that complemented Garcia’s dominance on the mound, reinforcing the team’s confidence as they near the quarter‑season milestone.
Looking Ahead
With just one game left before reaching the campaign’s quarter point, Brewster aims to carry this momentum into the next matchup. The shutout also ties Garcia with southpaw Payton Manca for the fewest walks in a start this season, highlighting the pitcher’s growing efficiency.
