Frontier barely beat Highland the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. The Titans blew past the Scots 9-3 on Friday. Nine seems to be a good number for the Titans as the squad scooped up a victory with the same number of runs in their previous game.
Landon Nettles spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered three earned runs on four hits and racked up eight Ks. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than two walks in eight consecutive appearances.
