There's no place like home for Timberlake, who bounced back after a loss on the road last Saturday. They put the hurt on the Medford Cardinals with a sharp 12-3 win on Monday. The Tigers might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won eight games by seven runs or more this season.

Paxton Glenn made a splash no matter where he played. On the mound, he struck out ten batters over five innings while giving up three earned runs off four hits. Those ten strikeouts gave him a new career-high. He was even better at the plate, scoring two runs and stealing six bases while going 1-for-2. He is becoming a predictor of Timberlake's success: when he posts at least two runs the team is undefeated (and 8-9 when he doesn't).

In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Sadler Greb, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with one home run, three runs, and two RBI. That's the most runs he has posted over his last ten matches. The team also got some help courtesy of Christopher Diller, who went 1-for-2 with one home run.

Timberlake is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 14-9 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.5 runs over those games. As for Medford, they dropped their record down to 8-11 with the loss, which was their fifth straight on the road.
