After losing to Northampton the last time they met, Whitehall decided to demonstrate that turnabout is fair play. The Zephyrs were the clear victors by an 8-2 margin over the Konkrete Kids on Thursday. The result was nothing new for the Zephyrs, who have now won eight games by six runs or more so far this season.

Jack Lloyd spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered just two earned runs on six hits and racked up ten Ks. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than two walks in five consecutive appearances.

At the plate, the team relied heavily on Tyler Sanders, who went a perfect 4-for-4 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs. That home run was his first of the season. Seth Hoderewski was another key player, going 2-for-3 with three stolen bases, one run, and one RBI.

They weren't the only ones making solid contact: Whitehall kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least 11 hits in three consecutive matchups.

Whitehall has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won eight of their last nine contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 15-5 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.8 runs over those games. As for Northampton, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 13-7.

Looking ahead, Whitehall will host Parkland at 4:05 p.m. on Monday. The Zephyrs' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Trojans have averaged an impressive 8.8 runs per game this season. As for Northampton, they will head out on the road to take on Fleetwood at 4:00 p.m. on Friday. The Tigers have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 8.24 runs per game on average), something the Konkrete Kids will no doubt try to take advantage of.
