Ryle's found some homefield redemption this week after a overtime loss to Milan on Monday. The Raiders were the clear victors by a 10-3 margin over the Boone County Rebels. The Raiders might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won seven matchups by seven runs or more this season.

Laci DeLauder was a major factor no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out 12 batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off six hits (and only one walk). She has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up more than two walks in four consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, going a perfect 3-for-3 with two RBI and one double.

In other batting news, Kam Patterson was a standout: she went 2-for-3 with one home run, three RBI, and one stolen base. That home run marked the first that she has launched this season. Another player making a difference was Rayne Patsel, who went 3-for-4 with three RBI, one run, and one double.

Ryle has been performing well recently as they've won seven of their last nine games. That's provided a nice bump to their 9-3-1 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.8 runs over those games. As for Boone County, they moved to 3-13 with that defeat, which also ended their three-game winning streak.

We've got plenty of inter-district action coming up soon. Ryle is set to challenge their familiar foe Conner at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Meanwhile, Boone County will face off against rival Cooper at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday.
