Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Hale County). Everything went their way against the Greensboro Raiders on Tuesday as they made off with a 23-1 win. The Wildcats might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won six matches by six runs or more this season.

Carmen Beard made a big impact no matter where she played. She tossed one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits. She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in five consecutive appearances. She was even better at the plate, going a perfect 3-for-3 with four RBI, two runs, and one double. Those four RBI gave her a new career-high.

In other batting news, Hale County got a massive performance out of Adalyn Seale, who scored two runs while going 1-for-1. What's more, Seale posted three RBI, the most she's had since back in February. Stormie Averette was another key player, going a perfect 2-for-2 with three RBI, one triple, and one run.

Hale County always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .806. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.

Hale County has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won seven of their last eight contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 9-7 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 13.3 runs over those games. As for Greensboro, they are on a nine-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-7.

Both teams will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Hale County will square off against University Charter at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday. As for Greensboro, they will take on Hatch at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Bobcats have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 13 runs per game on average), something the Raiders will no doubt try to take advantage of.
