It may have taken eight innings to finish the job, but Carbon Hill ultimately got the result they hoped for on Thursday. They walked away with an 11-7 win over the Gordo Green Wave. The Bulldogs haven't had any issues with the Green Wave recently, as the game was their seventh consecutive victory against them.
Ella Hyde spent all eight innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered four earned (and three unearned) runs on nine hits. Those hits marked the first that she allowed this season.
