There's no place like home for Parma, who bounced back after a loss on the road last Saturday. They blew past the Marsing Huskies 10-1 on Tuesday. Considering the Panthers have won six games by more than eight runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.

Parma let Zoey Heffelfinger and Poppy Nichols run wild. Heffelfinger scored two runs and stole a base while going 3-for-4, while Nichols went 1-for-2 with one home run and three RBI. The dominant performance also gave Heffelfinger a new career-high in doubles (two). Another player making a difference was Kinlea Cole, who scored two runs and stole three bases while going 2-for-3.

Parma was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .414. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Marsing only posted a batting average of .091.

Parma's victory was their ninth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 8-2. The home wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 13.3 runs over those games. As for Marsing, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 4-3.

Coming up, a feisty cat fight will be fought as Parma Panthers face off against Mountain Home Tigers at 5:30 p.m. on Friday. Mountain Home has struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 9.43 runs per game on average), something Parma will no doubt try to take advantage of. As for Marsing, they will welcome Vision at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday.
