Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Colonel Crawford). They put the hurt on the Bucyrus Redmen with a sharp 20-3 victory on Wednesday. Considering the Eagles have won six matchups by more than six runs this season, Wednesday's blowout was nothing new.

Betts was also stellar in the batter's box, going 2-for-4 with three runs, four RBI, and one stolen base. That's the most runs she has posted since back in March.
In other batting news, Brooklyn Vanderpool and Olivia Friley did most of the damage at the plate: Vanderpool went a perfect 3-for-3 with three runs, one stolen base, and two RBI, while Friley went 2-for-4 with three runs, three RBI, and one stolen base. That's the most RBI Friley has posted since back in March. The team also got some help courtesy of Emma Strausbaugh, who got on base in three of her four plate appearances with four RBI and one run.
Colonel Crawford always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .632. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
Colonel Crawford's win ended a three-game drought at home and bumped them up to 8-9. As for Bucyrus, they dropped their record down to 1-7 with the defeat, which was their fifth straight on the road dating back to last season.
Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Colonel Crawford will welcome Upper Sandusky at 5:00 p.m. on Monday. As for Bucyrus, they will look to defend their home field on Friday against Marion Harding at 5:00 p.m. The Presidents have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 12.5 runs per game on average), something the Redmen will no doubt try to take advantage of.
