Atascocita had already won two in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 8 runs) and they went ahead and made it three on Tuesday. Everything went their way against the Channelview Falcons as they made off with a 9-1 win. The Eagles might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won ten games by eight runs or more this season.

Abigail Ruiz spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered a run (which was unearned) on three hits. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than one walk in seven consecutive appearances.

At the plate, Cailynn Ruzick was a standout: she went 2-for-3 with one home run, three RBI, and one stolen base. That's the most hits she has posted since back in February. Savannah Broussard also deserves some recognition as she hit her first double of the season.

Atascocita hit smart and finished the game with only two strikeouts. The team has now struck out at least two batters in three consecutive contests.

Atascocita's record now sits at 16-7. As for Channelview, they have been struggling recently as they've lost four of their last five matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 8-8 record this season.

Both teams will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Atascocita will head out to square off against King at 6:30 p.m. on Friday. The Panthers have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 10.04 runs per game on average), something the Eagles will no doubt try to take advantage of. As for Channelview, they will venture away from home to face off against Summer Creek at 6:30 p.m. on Friday. The Bulldogs' pitching crew has only allowed 1.7 runs per game this season, so the Falcons' hitters will have their work cut out for them.
