Tolono Unity had to skate by with only a two-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 12-run drubbing they dealt Maroa-Forsyth on Thursday. The Rockets were the clear victors by a 14-2 margin over the Trojans. The result was nothing new for the Rockets, who have now won 18 matchups by eight runs or more so far this season.
Lindy Bates made a big impact while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she pitched two innings while giving up just two earned runs off two hits. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks in six consecutive appearances.

Tolono Unity has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won 14 of their last 15 contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 27-4 record this season.
