Considering the Pioneers have won six matchups by more than five runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.

Those three stolen bases gave Allinson a new career-high. Evangelina Aleman was another key player, going 2-for-4 with two runs, one double, and one RBI.
They weren't the only ones making solid contact: Providence kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. They are a perfect 6-0 when they post 11 or more hits.
