While Thomas Nelson didn't have the best season last year (they finished 8-14), it's starting to look like those struggles are a thing of the past. Everything went their way against the Paris Greyhounds on Saturday as they made off with a 15-3 victory. Considering the Generals have won six contests by more than five runs this season, Saturday's blowout was nothing new.

Mason Dobson and Ethan Casey were major factors while hitting and pitching. On the mound, Dobson pitched one inning while giving up no earned runs off one hit. Meanwhile, Casey tossed four innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off five hits. At bat, Dobson earned two RBI and two runs, while Casey got on base in all four of his plate appearances with two RBI and one double. The dominant performance also gave Casey a new career-high in hits (two).

In other batting news, Justin Parsley was a standout: he went 2-for-4 with two stolen bases, three runs, and one triple. Those three runs gave him a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Cole Girdley, who went 2-for-3 with three runs, one triple, and one double.

Thomas Nelson's win was their fourth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 7-5. Those road victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.3 runs on average over those games. As for Paris, their defeat ended a four-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 15-7.

Coming up, Thomas Nelson will venture away from home to take on Caverna at 5:30 p.m. on Monday. The Colonels have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 18 runs per game on average), something the Generals will no doubt try to take advantage of. As for Paris, they will host Bourbon County at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday.
