If Superior was feeling good fresh off their 13-3 takedown of Ash Fork/Seligman last Thursday, their most recent game may have dampened their spirits a bit. The Panthers fell 10-5 to the Globe Tigers on Friday. The Panthers were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Tigers apparently hadn't forgotten their defeat the last time these teams played back in March of 2022.

He has been consistent : he hasn't given up more than two walks in five consecutive appearances. He was also big at the plate, going 2-for-3 with one double and one RBI.
