Three Rivers had already won six in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 8.5 runs) and they went ahead and made it seven on Tuesday. They walked away with a 4-1 win over the D'Hanis Cowboys. This was a revenge game for the Bulldogs: when they faced off against the Cowboys back in March, they had to take a 11-9 loss.

Dylan Ender spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered a run (which was unearned) on four hits and racked up six Ks. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than two walks in four consecutive appearances.

At the plate, the team relied heavily on Evin Sheppard, who scored a run and stole three bases while going 1-for-3.

Three Rivers' victory was their fifth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 12-5. The home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.6 runs on average over those games. As for D'Hanis, their defeat ended a three-game streak of away wins and brought them to 6-6.

We've got plenty of inter-district action coming up soon. Three Rivers will challenge rival Brackett at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Meanwhile, D'Hanis is set to take on their familiar foe Falls City at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
