Athens had lost three straight, but after bumping their record up to 9-8 on Tuesday that streak is in the rearview. They came out on top in a nail-biter against the Phillips Loggers, sneaking past 6-4. Give some credit to the fans of both teams: the last four times they've met, the home team has come away the winner.
Athens let Karly Eckert and Brooklyn Westfall run wild. Eckert went 2-for-3 with three stolen bases and two runs, while Westfall went 2-for-3 with three RBI and two doubles. Those three stolen bases gave Eckert a new career-high.
As for Phillips, they have been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 12-8 record this season. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest defeat they have suffered since March 29th.
On Phillips' side, Annaka Tobias spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered five earned (and one unearned) runs on eight hits and racked up seven Ks.
On the hitting side, Phillips saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Jaylan Meyer, who went 1-for-3 with two RBI and one double.
Athens will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Loggers: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 4:45 p.m. on Thursday.
