Red Bay had to skate by with only a two-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the eight-run drubbing they dealt Lamar County on Tuesday. The Tigers never let the Bulldogs get on the board and left with an 8-0 victory. Considering the Tigers have won eight matchups by more than six runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.

Not much got past Carson McGee, who gave up just two hits and racked up nine Ks to keep Lamar County off the board. McGee has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two walks in eight consecutive appearances.

On the hitting side, Jeremiah Thorne was incredible, going 2-for-3 with one home run, three runs, and two RBI. That home run marked the first that he has launched this season. Landyn Lewey was another key player, going 2-for-4 with one stolen base, one run, and one double.

The win was the third in a row for Red Bay, bringing their record up to 11-4. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.0 run on average over those games. As for Lamar County, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 9-8 record this season.

The teams didn't have to wait long for a rematch: Red Bay beat Lamar County by a score of 1-0 later that day.
