Oakdale was led to victory by Joseph Summers, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Thursday. Summers was dynamite, striking out 11 batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned run off four hits (and not a single walk). He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't pitched less than five innings in four consecutive pitching appearances.

Summers' strong effort led Oakdale over Washburn and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 12:00 p.m. on Friday. Thanks in part to Summers' efforts, Oakdale will roll in on an 11-game winning streak. Will Summers and the rest of the team keep the streak alive? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
