Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Franklin). They never let the Sheldon Huskies get on the board and left with a 24-0 victory on Friday. Winning may never get old, but the Wildcats sure are getting used to it with their sixth in a row.

Noah Flores looked comfortable as he pitched one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two hits in three consecutive appearances.

At the plate, Franklin got a massive performance out of Jason Harris, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with one home run, three runs, and one triple. The team also got some help courtesy of Dylan Minnatee, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with two runs, one triple, and two RBI.

Franklin was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .378. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Sheldon only posted a batting average of .118.

Franklin pushed their record up to 12-2 with the win, which was their third straight on the road. The road victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 17.3 runs over those games. As for Sheldon, they are on a seven-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-10.

The two teams have allowed few runs on average (the Wildcats 3, the Thundering Herd 4.1) so any runs scored will be well earned.
