While not the prettiest of games, a win is still a win, as Tuesday night Nandua beat Arcadia 10-0 on the road. The Warriors came out swinging in the first inning with Luke Parks singling down the first baseline. Parks would then steal second base, and after Tyler Greene drew a walk, the Warriors were set up with two in scoring position. Brandon Adamos brought his teammates home with a hard-hit ball up the center, as Nandua raced out to an early lead.

Outside of a few control issues, Ripken Robbins made quick work of the Firebirds in his three innings on the mound. Armonta Dickerson would be the only batter to register a hit off Robbins, and it was the Firebirds only hit for the game, as Jacob Meilhammer would pitch two strong innings of relief for the Warriors.

Though they would strand runners along the way, Nandua made the most of many opportunities throughout the game, with an RBI single from Cade Williams and two-run double to deep left-centerfield from Parks. Adamos added another RBI single late in the game and finished the game with four runs batted in.

Nathan Barnes took the loss on the mound for Arcadia.
