Tatum took a ten-run defeat the last time they faced off against Central Heights, but this time they managed to keep it close and that made all the difference. The Eagles sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 1-0 win over the Blue Devils on Saturday. The Eagles were shut out 10-0 the last time they took on the Blue Devils, so the Eagles were just returning the favor.

Not much got past Cayden Tatum, who gave up just a hit to keep Central Heights off the board.

At the plate, Tatum's victory was truly a team effort as five different players contributed at least one hit. One of them was Grant Adcock, who scored a run while going 2-for-2.

The win made it two in a row for Tatum and bumps their season record up to 16-6. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered a grand total of 1 runs in those games. As for Central Heights, they moved to 15-5 with that loss, which also ended their six-game winning streak.

Looking ahead, Tatum will challenge White Oak at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (the Eagles 2.9, the Roughnecks 3.3) so any runs scored will be well earned. As for Central Heights, they will face off against Diboll at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Both teams are headed into the matchup with plenty of momentum (the Blue Devils have won three straight at home, while the Lumberjacks won four straight on the road), something that'll have to change.
