Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Thunderbird). Everything went their way against the Moon Valley Rockets on Thursday as Thunderbird made off with a 25-3 victory. Considering the Titans have won nine matchups by more than five runs this season, Thursday's blowout was nothing new.
Evan Turner and Addison Hodge were a major factor no matter where they played. Throwing, Turner tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. Meanwhile, Hodge struck out six batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). Those zero hits allowed gave her a new career-low. At bat, Turner scored a run while going 1-for-2, while Hodge scored three runs while going 3-for-4. What's more, Turner posted two RBI, the most she's had since back in February.
