South Columbus was led to victory by Tyler Thompson, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Tuesday. Thompson turned in nothing short of a gem: he struck out six batters over five innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off one hit (and not a single walk).
Thompson's strong effort led South Columbus over Pender and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Thompson has dominated as far as walks are concerned (he's averaged 0.3 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Pender has only allowed 3.2 per game this season.
