Anoka had to skate by with only a two-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the six-run drubbing they dealt Osseo on Tuesday. The Tornadoes were the clear victors by an 8-2 margin over the Orioles. The win continues a trend for the Tornadoes in their matchups with the Orioles: they've now won nine in a row.

Makenna Herberg spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and one unearned) run on six hits. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks in six consecutive appearances.

At the plate, the team relied heavily on Jordyn Jones, who got on base in three of her five plate appearances with one stolen base and two RBI. The team also got some help courtesy of Jorja Franzwa, who went 1-for-3 with one stolen base and one run.

Anoka's victory bumped their record up to 9-4. As for Osseo, their defeat was their 11th straight at home dating back to last season, which dropped their record down to 2-8.

We've got plenty of inter-conference action coming up soon. Anoka will square off against rival Rogers at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (the Tornadoes 3.8, the Royals 1.4) so any runs scored will be well earned.
