East Limestone had to skate by with only a two-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the ten-run drubbing they dealt Decatur on Friday. The Indians put the hurt on the Red Raiders with a sharp 14-4 victory. The result was nothing new for the Indians, who have now won ten matchups by six runs or more so far this season.

The team relied heavily on Tyler Kelley, who got on base in all four of his plate appearances with one home run and two RBI. The dominant performance also gave him a new career-high in hits (two). Another player making a difference was Leyton Coffman, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 1-for-2.

East Limestone always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .676. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.

East Limestone is on a roll lately: they've won nine of their last ten games. That's provided a massive bump to their 18-9 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.1 runs on average over those games. As for Decatur, they are on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 7-16.
