Chapin won the last time they faced Andress and things went their way on Tuesday too. The Huskies put the hurt on the Eagles with a sharp 16-1 win. Considering the Huskies have won nine matchups by more than seven runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.

Izayah Carrasco was a major factor no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out eight batters over five innings while giving up just one earned run off two hits. That's the most strikeouts he has posted since back in February. He was also stellar in the batter's box, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with one home run, three RBI, and two runs.

In other batting news, Chapin let Bryan Cordero and Nathan Hurtado run wild. Cordero went 2-for-3 with one home run, four RBI, and two runs, while Hurtado went 3-for-4 with four RBI, two doubles, and one run. Those two runs gave Cordero a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Beckett Babb, who went 2-for-3 with two runs, one stolen base, and one RBI.

Chapin always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .595. They are undefeated (6-0) when they post an OBP of .513 or better.

Chapin's victory was their third straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 15-11-1. Those road wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.0 runs on average over those games. As for Andress, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost six of their last seven games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 10-15 record this season.

We've got plenty of inter-district action coming up soon. Chapin is set to challenge their familiar foe Burges at 6:30 p.m. on Friday. Meanwhile, Andress will square off against rival Jefferson at 6:30 p.m. on Friday.
