Elba had lost three straight at home, but on Monday they dropped down to 10-13 to make it four. They lost 15-7 to the Carroll Eagles.

As for Carroll, the victory got them back to even at 8-8. The result was nothing new for the Eagles, who have now won six matchups by six runs or more so far this season.
On Carroll's side, Anzley McInnis made a big impact no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out six batters over five innings while giving up three earned (and two unearned) runs off four hits. McInnis has been consistent for a while: she hasn't given up more than two walks in nine consecutive appearances. She was also solid in the batter's box, going a perfect 3-for-3 with two doubles and one RBI. Those two doubles gave her a new career-high.
In other batting news, Rainey Woodard was a standout: she went a perfect 2-for-2 with three runs, one triple, and one stolen base. That triple marked the first that she has hit this season. Nevaeh Landrum was another key player, going 3-for-4 with three RBI, two runs, and one double.
