Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Rigby). Everything went their way against the Idaho Falls Tigers on Monday as they made off with a 20-6 victory. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest win of the season.

Dean was even better at the plate, going 3-for-5 with one home run, two runs, and two RBI. Those three hits gave her a new career-high.
