Hallsville had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 15-run drubbing they dealt Nacogdoches on Friday. Hallsville's pitcher stepped up to hand Nacogdoches a 15-0 shutout. The Bobcats might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 14 games by six runs or more this season.

Lindsey Dubberly made a big impact no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out eight batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits (and not a single walk). That's the fewest hits she has allowed since back in February. She was also solid in the batter's box, going a perfect 2-for-2 with one triple and one RBI.

In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Hope Miles, who scored three runs and stole two bases while going 2-for-2. That's the most stolen bases she has posted since back in February. Another player making a difference was Sadie Gonzalez, who went a perfect 1-for-1 with one home run and two RBI.

Hallsville was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .625. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Nacogdoches only posted a batting average of .182.

Hallsville has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won 16 of their last 17 matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 21-3-1 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.8 runs on average over those games. Nacogdoches is on a nine-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-16.

Coming up, a feisty cat fight will be fought as Hallsville Bobcats challenge Tyler Lions at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday. Hallsville is facing Tyler at the right time seeing as Tyler is stuck on a 14-game losing streak. As for Nacogdoches, they will welcome Texas at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday. Nacogdoches' pitchers better be ready for this one: Texas has averaged an impressive 6.8 runs per game this season.
