Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Ellison). They blew past the Waco Lions 26-8 on Friday. The victory was some much needed relief for the Eagles as it spelled an end to their nine-game losing streak.

Those RBI marked the first that Arriola has brought in this season.

The win was their first on the road, bumping their record up to 2-13. As for Waco, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 4-10.
