Briefly: Poston perfect in playoff win for Aynor baseball over Timberland

    ORDER REPRINT →

May 01, 2014 10:59 PM

Jordan Poston turned out to be the perfect choice to start Aynor’s first playoff game – because he was perfect on Thursday night.

The junior didn’t allow a single runner to reach base while striking out nine in a five-inning win, 12-0, over Timberland. Aynor coach Chad Sarbis said the performance was one he’s watched the junior build up to all year.

“In the beginning of the season we felt like if he could come along and develop his offspeed stuff and stay healthy, we felt like he could be a quality arm for us. Each outing he's gotten better,” Sarbis said. “Being on the road, not being in a comfortable environment. … I felt like he really settled in well. He threw the ball well. He did a good job of growing up this year on the mound, and he's been a big plus this year.”

Poston was helped along by his team’s strong offensive output. Quin Prosser led the charge, going 2-for-4 with 3 RBIs. Sarbis said his team’s tough region slate has prepared them well.

“We play in a tough region,” he said. “Four out of the top 6 in our region were ranked [preseason]. We kind of beat up on each other all year long.”

Aynor next travels to region-foe Dillon on Saturday for a 6:30 start.

“It's always a good outing every time we play that crowd and we're looking forward to it,” Sarbis said.
