Fordland had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the ten-run drubbing they dealt Cabool on Monday. The Eagles' pitchers stepped up to hand the Bulldogs a 10-0 shutout. The Eagles might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won six games by six runs or more this season.

The victory (which was Fordland's fourth in a row) raised their record to 8-9. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 4.0 runs on average over those games. As for Cabool, they have been struggling recently as they've lost nine of their last ten contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 3-16 record this season.

Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Fordland will face off against Mountain Grove at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. As for Cabool, they will take on Liberty at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday. The Eagles have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 15.71 runs per game on average), something the Bulldogs will no doubt try to take advantage of.
