Curtis went 2-for-3 with four runs, two stolen bases, and two RBI, while Wright went a perfect 3-for-3 with four RBI, two runs, and two doubles. Those four RBI gave Wright a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Tatum Duncan, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with three runs and two RBI.

Beaver Local's win was their fifth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 12-2. The road victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.8 runs on average over those games. As for Southern, they moved to 5-5 with that defeat, which also ended their four-game winning streak.

The teams didn't have to wait long for a rematch: Beaver Local beat the Indians by a score of 18-4 later that day.
