Tipton found a leader in Max Atherton as the squad took down Taylor on Friday. Atherton produced his best game of the campaign: he struck out seven batters over seven innings while giving up three earned runs off five hits (and only one walk). He also tossed a walk, which is notable because Tipton is 2-1 when he allows at most one walk, but 7-15 otherwise.

Looking ahead, Atherton and Tipton will square off against Sheridan at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday. The last time Atherton duked it out with the Blackhawks (back in April), the Blue Devils came out on top by a score of 7-4. Will another strong game from Atherton be enough to do it again?
