Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask South Sioux City). They blew past the Bryan Bears 19-3 on Saturday. The high-flying hitting performance was a huge turnaround for the Cardinals considering their two-run performance the match before.
Darrius Helms was incredible, going 4-for-5 with two triples, five RBI, and three runs. He is becoming a predictor of South Sioux City's success: when he posts at least two runs the team is undefeated (and 1-4 when he doesn't). Keaton Ross was another key player, going a perfect 2-for-2 with four RBI, one triple, and one run.
