Everything went their way against the Manchester Squires as they made off with a 10-0 victory. The Barons might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won ten matchups by six runs or more this season.
The result came thanks to Bryson Gadson's shutout, as he gave up just two hits and racked up eight Ks.

DeKalb pushed their record up to 15-1 with the win, which was their seventh straight at home dating back to last season. The home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.0 runs on average over those games.
