Winning always takes teamwork, but on Tuesday Jack Herd stepped things up a notch to give Bucklin the 'W'. Minneola had no answer to Herd as he pitched 2.1 innings while giving up no earned run or hits (he also only allowed one walk).
Herd's strong effort led Bucklin over Minneola and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Herd has dominated as far as earned runs are concerned (he's averaged 0.3 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Minneola has only allowed three per game this season.
