It's playoff time, and Hernando had no trouble coming through when it counted. They were the clear victors by a 12-2 margin over the Tupelo Golden Wave on Thursday. The Tigers might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 16 games by six runs or more this season.
Haylee Jackson looked comfortable as she tossed three innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. She has been consistent: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in six consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Macie Dever Boaz, who got on base in all four of her plate appearances with one home run, two stolen bases, and three runs. That's the most runs she has posted since back in March. Graycin Higginbotham also deserves some recognition as she hit her first double of the season.
