Taylor Allen spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and one unearned) run on six hits. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than one walk any time she's pitched this season.
At the plate, New Bloomfield saw two different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Bella Talbot, who went 1-for-4 with one triple and one run.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Russellville). They never let Cuba get on the board and left with a 22-0 victory on Wednesday. The result was nothing new for the Indians, who have now won six games by six runs or more so far this season.
Karsyn Duncan made a splash no matter where she played. On the mound, she pitched three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. Duncan was also stellar in the batter's box, going 1-for-3 with five RBI, two runs, and one double. Those five RBI gave her a new career-high.
