While Skyline put up plenty of runs on Tuesday, the same can't be said for Ness City. The Thunderbirds were the clear victors by a 21-0 margin over the Eagles. The result was nothing new for the Thunderbirds, who have now won seven matchups by eight runs or more so far this season.

Kory Anschutz made a big impact no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out six batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits (and not a single walk). She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks in 12 consecutive appearances. She was even better at the plate, going 2-for-4 with five stolen bases, six RBI, and two runs. Those six RBI gave her a new career-high.

In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Sarah Reyes, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with four runs, three RBI, and one stolen base. She is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as she's now snagged at least one in each of the last seven games she's played. Grace Hoffman was another key player, getting on base in all four of her plate appearances with two stolen bases and three runs.

Skyline kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least eight hits in five consecutive games.

Skyline's victory was their fourth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 16-6. Those road wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.0 runs on average over those games. As for Ness City, they are on an 11-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-10.

As of now, neither Skyline nor the Eagles have any future games scheduled.
