Amador was sadly handed a loss on Tuesday, but Johnny Melton did his best to prevent it. Melton struck out seven batters over five innings while giving up just two earned (and one unearned) runs off seven hits. The performance marked the fewest earned runs he has had since back in February.

Despite Melton's best efforts to the contrary, Amador will head into their next match having dropped three straight contests. Will Thursday be the turning point? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other baseball content.
