Tarpon Springs was led to victory by Kole Hopkins, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Tuesday. Hopkins turned in nothing short of a gem: he didn't allow a single earned run while striking out eight over seven innings pitched. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't pitched less than five innings in five consecutive pitching appearances.
Hopkins and Tarpon Springs will head out on the road to square off against IMG Academy Blue at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Hopkins has dominated as far as walks are concerned (he's averaged 1.1 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering IMG Academy Blue has only allowed four per game this season.
