Tallulah Falls had to skate by with only a two-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 12-run drubbing they dealt Gatewood on Tuesday. The Indians put the hurt on the Gators with a sharp 13-1 win. The Indians might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 13 matches by seven runs or more this season.

Cole Bonitatibus tossed a big game, striking out nine batters over five innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits. That's the most strikeouts he has posted since back in March.

At the plate, Ashton Roache and BJ Carver did most of the damage at the plate: Roache got on base in two of his four plate appearances with two stolen bases and two runs, while Carver went 3-for-4 with one run and one RBI. That's the most hits Carver has posted since back in April of 2024. Another player making a difference was Justin Smith, who went 1-for-3 with two runs, one stolen base, and two RBI.

Tallulah Falls always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .625. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Gatewood only posted an OBP of .318.

Tallulah Falls has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won 11 of their last 12 contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 19-8 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.2 runs over those games. As for Gatewood, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 18-8.

Looking ahead, Tallulah Falls will face off against Rabun Gap-Nacoochee at 5:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (the Indians 4, the Eagles 3.9) so any runs scored will be well earned. As for Gatewood, they will look to defend their home field on Wednesday against Bulloch Academy at 5:00 p.m.
