Stone was led to victory by Anderson Hickman, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Tuesday. Hickman turned in nothing short of a gem: he struck out 11 batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits (and only one walk). He has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than two walks in three consecutive pitching appearances.
Hickman's strong effort led Stone over Gautier and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Stone is 6-1 against Gautier going back to April of 2018, a lead they'll look to extend.
