Sudan made up a huge gap compared to their last game against Olton, but they still couldn't quite topple them. The Hornets' pitcher stepped up to hand the Mustangs a 6-0 shutout on Tuesday. The Hornets might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 13 contests by six runs or more this season.

The result came thanks to Cal Carter's shutout, as he gave up just two hits and racked up eight Ks. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in three consecutive appearances.

At the plate, Sudan saw five different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Julian Salas, who scored a run while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances.

The win (which was Sudan's sixth in a row) raised their record to 15-6. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.5 runs on average over those games. As for Olton, their defeat was their third straight at home, which dropped their record down to 5-12.

Sudan will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Mustangs: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday.
