Rattan had already won five in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 4 runs) and they went ahead and made it six on Monday. They never let the Latta Panthers get on the board and left with an 8-0 win. Considering the Rams have won nine matchups by more than six runs this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.

That's the most RBI Cody has posted since back in March. The team also got some help courtesy of Kooper Johnson, who scored a run while going 2-for-4.
