The Rockport-Fulton Pirates will head out on the road to take on the Calhoun Sandcrabs at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, the two teams will really light up the scoreboard.
Last Tuesday, Rockport-Fulton got the win against Sinton by a conclusive 12-3. Considering Rockport-Fulton has won 11 matches by more than five runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.
Calhoun not only won on Tuesday, but they posted their biggest win since February 17th. They blew past Jones 11-5. The win continues a trend for the Sandcrabs in their matchups with the Trojans: they've now won eight in a row.
Ella Lange and Braylyn Galloway did most of the damage at the plate: Lange scored two runs while getting on base in three of her five plate appearances, while Galloway went 1-for-5 with one home run and three RBI. That's the most RBI Galloway has posted since back in February. Veronica Zavala also deserves some recognition as she scored her first run of the season.
They weren't the only ones working in the hit department: Calhoun kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 13 hits. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Jones only managed eight hits.

Everything went Rockport-Fulton's way against Calhoun when the teams last played back in April of 2024, as Rockport-Fulton made off with a 14-1 win.
