Tatum had already proven themselves in the regular season and they didn't miss a beat now that it's playoff time. They never let the Mineola Yellowjackets get on the board and left with a 4-0 victory on Friday.
Mineola's batters probably weren't too happy with Tristin Berry, who pitched a no hitter (he gave up a single walk). Berry has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two walks in 12 consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Cooper Whiteus was excellent, going a perfect 3-for-3 with one triple and one double. That's the most hits he has posted since back in March. Tucker Anthony was another key player, going 1-for-2 with one run, one double, and one RBI.
Tatum has been performing well recently as they've won six of their last eight contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 20-8 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.0 runs on average over those games. As for Mineola, they are on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 10-14.
As of now, neither Tatum nor the Yellowjackets have any future games scheduled.
