Schuyler County won the last time they faced Scotland County and things went their way on Monday too. The Rams were the clear victors by a 7-1 margin over the Tigers. The Rams might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won seven matches by six runs or more this season.

Gage Brownell made a big impact while hitting and pitching. He looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run and allowing only one hit while striking out ten over seven innings pitched. He also tossed no earned runs, which is notable because Schuyler County is 7-2 when he allows at most two earned runs, but 4-5 otherwise. Brownell was also big at the plate, going 2-for-4 with four stolen bases, two runs, and one RBI. Those four stolen bases gave him a new career-high.

Brownell wasn't the only one making solid contact as four players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Colin Oliver, who got on base in three of his four plate appearances with one double and one RBI. That double marked the first that Oliver has hit this season. Another was Mason Windy, who went 2-for-4 with one stolen base, one run, and one RBI.

Schuyler County is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven games. That's provided a massive bump to their 11-7 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.0 runs on average over those games. As for Scotland County, their loss dropped their record down to 6-5.

We've got plenty of inter-district action coming up soon. Schuyler County will square off against rival Putnam County at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Scotland County is set to challenge their familiar foe Knox County at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday.
