Parker had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 11-run drubbing they dealt Midfield on Thursday. The Parker Thundering Herd put the hurt on the Midfield Patriots with a sharp 13-2 victory. Considering the Thundering Herd have won four matches by more than ten runs this season, Thursday's blowout was nothing new.
Major Davis-Craig was a standout: he scored two runs and stole three bases while getting on base in both of his plate appearances. He is becoming a predictor of Parker's success: when he posts at least two stolen bases the team is undefeated (and 1-3 when he doesn't). Another player making a difference was Terrion Nevels, who scored two runs and stole five bases.
