St. Stanislaus had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the seven-run drubbing they dealt Forrest County Agricultural on Saturday. The Rock-a-Chaws put the hurt on the Aggies with a sharp 13-6 win. Considering the Rock-a-Chaws have won eight contests by more than five runs this season, Saturday's blowout was nothing new.

St. Stanislaus' victory was their fourth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 15-8. Those road wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.3 runs over those games.
