Higley came out on top against Mountain Ridge on Tuesday thanks in part to Ryan Birch's efforts. Birch was dynamite, tossing 5.1 innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in six consecutive appearances.
Coming up, Birch and Higley will square off against Hamilton on Thursday. The Knights will be headed into this one with a sizable disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 26 places lower in Arizona), but they're not letting that get them down.
