Baldwin County proved they can win big last Tuesday (they won by 20) and on Thursday they proved they can win the close ones too. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 2-0 win over the Saraland Spartans. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest victory the Tigers have posted since February 22nd.

The result came thanks to Madilyn Byrd's shutout, as she gave up just two hits. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in nine consecutive appearances.

On the hitting side, Baldwin County's win was truly a team effort as three different players contributed at least one hit. One of them was Brooke McGowin, who went 1-for-3 with one double.

Baldwin County is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 10-3 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 7.3 runs over those games. Saraland's defeat ended a five-game streak of away wins dating back to last season and brought them to 10-3.

Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Baldwin County will head out to challenge Spanish Fort at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. As for Saraland, they will face off against Theodore at 4:00 p.m. on Monday.
