Trumann had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 12-run drubbing they dealt Piggott on Monday. The Wildcats never let the Mohawks get on the board and left with a 12-0 victory. Considering the Wildcats have won seven games by more than five runs this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.

Trumann gave Peyton Chaffin the start and clearly made the right call: he didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits over five innings pitched. Chaffin also tossed no earned runs, which is notable because the Wildcats are undefeated when he allows at most one earned run, but 6-7-1 otherwise.

On the hitting side, Braydon Passmore was a standout: he went a perfect 3-for-3 with three stolen bases and one run. He is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now snagged at least one in each of the last nine games he's played. Isaiah Carrillo was another key player, going 2-for-3 with two runs, one stolen base, and one RBI.

Trumann always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .515. They are 7-1 when they post an OBP of .513 or better.

The win was the third in a row for Trumann, bringing their record up to 12-7-1. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 14.0 runs over those games. As for Piggott, they have been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 6-10 record this season.

Trumann didn't take long to hit the field again: they've already played their next matchup, a 10-0 loss against Wynne on the 21st. As for Piggott, they will welcome Maynard at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday.
