Milburn's game on Monday was a loss, but they didn't let that memory haunt them on Tuesday. They put the hurt on the Wapanucka Indians with a sharp 19-5 victory. The high-scoring performance was a welcome turnaround for the Eagles' hitters, who had struggled in the games prior.
Cade Mcbride was a major factor no matter where he played. He pitched 2.2 innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. Mcbride was also stellar in the batter's box, getting on base in four of his five plate appearances with two stolen bases, three runs, and one double.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Alex Wingo, who went 3-for-5 with one home run, five RBI, and three runs. Landyn Turnbull was another key player, getting on base in all five of his plate appearances with four stolen bases and three runs.
Milburn's first win this season bumped their record up to 1-2.
Milburn didn't take long to hit the field again: they've already played their next contest, a 6-5 loss against Fort Towson on the 14th. Hopefully Wapanucka paid attention to the Eagles' game: the next time they hit the field, they'll take on the Eagles at 4:00 p.m. on September 12.
