The Bulldogs' pitcher stepped up to hand the Jaguars a 10-0 shutout. Considering the Bulldogs have won ten matches by more than six runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.

Bristen Wheeler was incredible, going 1-for-3 with one home run and three RBI. Josie Branch also deserves some recognition as she snagged her first stolen base of the season.

Tuckerman is on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six games. That's provided a nice bump to their 12-4 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.7 runs over those games. As for McCrory, they dropped their record down to 5-5 with the defeat, which was their fourth straight on the road dating back to last season.

Both teams will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Tuckerman will venture away from home to challenge Mammoth Spring at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Bulldogs are facing the Bears at the right time seeing as the Bears are stuck on a nine-game losing streak. As for McCrory, they will take on West Memphis at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday.
